I would actually love to see that happen, just as to hear all the Democrats who for years have been deriding the electoral college after the 2000 election to suddenly find it to be the Founding Father's greatest idea, like, ever.
ReplyDelete^Exactly. It's only a good idea if it favors the Democrats. Damned hypocrites.
ReplyDeleteBut it's a bad idea if it doesn't favor the Republicans. Damned hypocrites.
ReplyDeleteUh, Anonymous, the point is that the Dems deride the College, and Republicans don't. So only the Dems would be hypocrites if they started praising the College if their man won.
ReplyDeleteMaybe if I couldn't figure that one out, I'd want to be anonymous too
