It depends on the state. I think. Seems to me the reps can change their minds and swing their votes to someone else at the conventions. But I may be overstating the arbitrariness.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Yeah, most of what I understand about the process comes from watching the end of S6 of the West Wing.

Ah, fuck me. An apt complex across the street has had a rash of arsons today. 5 individual fires set. Mind you, my complex, in the past few years, has had the leasing office arsoned twice, plus assorted unexplained apt fires (I cornered a cop at one of them and he told me the suspected it was a serial arsonist.)
Freaks me the hell out.
I had my neighbor's home burnt when I was a teen, due to some fucktard arsonist never caught. I've had accidental fires. It freaks me the fuck out. ( repeating that...) I'm gone 10 hours a day, with all that is precious to me here. IT REALLY FREAKS ME OUT.

On a mostly shallow note, I've been listening to the speeches, and regardless of who ultimately comes out on top, it's going to be SO nice to have a grammatical, articulate president again.

Except that Obama just used "enormity" as "really big thing" instead of "enormously horrible thing."
Tsk, tsk.

I want Chuck Norris standing on his shoulder. And I think the nation is with me.

Just popping into Natter to say that an ill Trudy Booth noticed that Procedurals and Natter were on the same post and Bitches were close, and set us to posting in Bitches. Unfortunately, there weren't many of us there, and folks keep posting in Natter, making it harder to catch up. Please, for the love of doG, someone post in Procedurals and Bitches and not here, just until they're even. It maybe silly, but if you don't, I may die of haiku trying to keep up.

Start posting your haikus one line to a post. That should help.
