   We saw that with the Iowa Democratic caucus. It's a very strange   
   operation with small groups trying to form a consensus to send   
   delegate(s) for one candidate or the other. In the best of years it's   
   awkward. This year it was a disaster. They tried to go digital with   
   computer illiterates.   
      
   Buttigieg and Sanders both claimed victory. Of course the DNC has no   
   interest in a self-proclaimed democratic socialist (he's a social   
   democrat if anything) or a gay candidate so the anointed a tool   
   descending into dementia.
