Excerpt:

It is difficult to get excited about a convention where the nominee is a foregone conclusion and delegates will rubber stamp an issues platform written by the White House. The Party faithful are largely window-dressing relegated to filling seats, wearing  funny hats , eating and drinking.

Please do not let this happen. You have a vote. Use it. And when you do, do not vote for Marion Barry.
