Re: Maybe next time (2.00 / 1)

The problem with overturning the elected delegates is that it could produce party-infighting that could well lead to a loss for Democrats in November. We need a solution for superdelegates that will enable us to avoid a fight at the convention. Something that all participants can buy into and see as legitimate. Superdelegates voting as "party bosses" and tells us what is best for us (i.e. we made substantively wrong decision) is arguably not the right approach. Th Supreme Court knows this. Thay why they don't say: Congress, we know better than you even thou you are the elected representatives of the people. Instead they say: Congress, there was a problem coming to your decision.
