I don't care what Hillary is or isn't -- but I'll sure be glad when
she's gone.

She's been here every other day -- along with Bill, Obama, and Edwards
-- for months. We can't go to a restaurant, basketball game, or
library without running into their entourage, keepers, security and
followers. It's been nuts.

Thankfully, the caucus is tomorrow -- and we can all get back to
normal.

Came for the movie night and decided to stay, did she?


Nope. There's no way any of the politicos would stay at anything
other than a big-box chain motel, if for no other reason than
security.

Our little place is wide open, with no way (for example) to securely
guard a floor. And, of course, we're so small (just 30 suites) and so
occupied that we couldn't even handle a third-tier party's entourage,
let alone the bloated gang that follows Clinton and Obama around.


As opposed to the discreet and unnoticeable gangs following Romney or
Huckabee, I'm sure. Way to keep on topic and follow the charter your
buddy Larry posted just recently, particularly:

"Chit-chat and hangar-flying articles unrelated to piloting should be
posted in rec.aviation.miscellaneous."

That's where Larry and I part ways. I think this is basically a hangar
flying session, where conversations among pilots range widely across the
board. I have no problem with that, although apparently you do?

As for the Republicans, they don't bother to come to my town. We have had
single-party rule here in Iowa City since before I was born, and I'm going
to be 50 this year.

How do the 250,000 caucus goers earn the right to be national judges
of candidates ??

Stupid, ain't it? I have no idea why all states don't hold their primaries
on the same day.

Although, if someone has to be first, I guess I'd rather see Iowa ahead of
most states...

People in Iowa are 100% unlikely to be in or from California or Florida, so
it's probably for the best.

I don't usually comment on politics, as it is a losing battle in a public
forum, and will comment on the system, not the people, in this case.

It bothers me to no end, that some states get to weed out the field, before
I get a chance to vote on the entire bunch of candidates.

The last time there were primary elections, the person I wanted to vote for
was eliminated in the first few weeks of primaries. The states that had not
voted never got to say who their first choice in the primaries should be.

That was not what our forefathers intended. The system has been corrupted.

What will it take to fix it? I have no idea, but I wish it would be fixed.
I realize why it has not been; because the powers wish it to stay as it is.

The first few primaries are all about money - convincing contributors to put their money
on you and not the other candidates. Only later is it about winning enough delegates for
the nominating convention.

Two ideas:

1. Hold all state primaries on the same day, by law no more than six months
in advance of the presidential election. (This never-ending electioneering
must end...)

2. Make Election Day a national holiday, as is done in many democracies.
(Before you think I've gone soft, though, in order to do this Congress must
eliminate one other national holiday...)

I think #1 would go a long ways toward leveling the playing field, and #2
would help address our absurdly low election day turnout.
