Um... why would Puerto Ricans care more about electability in an election in which they cannot vote? That's a little strange.

Then again, this entire Puerto Rican primary is a little bizarre.

Well, it's a good thing most of those districts have an even number of delegates, or else Obama would be screwed.

CNN had some numbers from San Juan which then got retracted. Weird.
Not weird at all; that's how they do things down there. Tongue

No one in this thread has said anything like that all, Walter. Stop playing the victim.

In his defense, I'm sure a number of people, back in early February, thought that Puerto Rico's delegates would all go to one candidate, though probably for different reasons.

It's not hard to look up the DNC delegate allocation rules before writing something publicly.
Did he actually say it would be winner-take-all? If so, he's an idiot.

But, what I was trying to say was, I'm sure most back in February thought that by Puerto Rico we'd have a nominee and that nominee would win all the island's delegates and super-delegates.
