| Romney wins Washington caucuses |
| 2012-03-04 |
| [Iran Press TV] Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney ...whose real first name is actually, no kidding, Willard, was governor of Massachussetts and is currently the front-runner for president on the Publican ticket. He is the son of the former governor of Michigan, George Romney, who himself ran for president after saving American Motors from failure, though not permanently. Romney's foot is in an ideological bucket because of Romneycare, a state-level experiment that should have been a warning against Obamacare if anyone had been paying attention. Romney's charisma is best defined as soporific, which is probably why he is leading the Publican field... ...those are all his good points, of course, which is why the country is better off with him than with Champ Obama... has won Washington state's presidential caucuses with 37 percent of the vote. |

| #2 Axelrod demonstrated, much to Hillary's regret, just how far you could go in 2008 to manipulate a caucus. I say do away with them. Either hold a proper primary or hold a state party convention. |

| #1 There are some complaints of pretty blatant caucus stuffing, in which not only were just some of the Republicans told to bring their "required" registration cards; but hundreds were turned away from caucus sites, as many or more locked out than were allowed in. Importantly, if they were dirty tricks, they are allowed in caucuses, because all a caucus can do is give "momentum" to a candidate. The actual vote for delegates is later. |
