The life of a super-delegate

Here's a quote from U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords on being one of the sought after super-delegates:

"You know there is something interesting going on when you pick up your cellphone and see all those out-of-state phone numbers," said Representative Gabrielle Giffords of Arizona, who reported getting calls from [Arizona Governor Janet] Napolitano and [former Senate Majority Leader Tom] Daschle.

Both Napolitano and Daschle are Obama backers.

The super delegate system is a travesty to democracy. Our vote must be heard! We can not have our nominee selected for us!

I have made a protest site here:

Please add your comments to this page. I will print them all out and hand them to the democratic national committee!
