Replying to a comment on Superdelegates?

I'd like to point out that the "unholy alliance" of superdelegates are actually elected by the people. Governor, Dem Congressional Delegation, etc electeds. Then the "Party Insiders" are elected, the Party Chair and Vice and DNC Committee People are all elected inside the Democratic Party. The voters for those are your Democrat neighbors who give enough of a damn to participate in local Party politics, these aren't some big money boys, they're your 2nd grade teacher, your carpenter, your coffee shop owner, plain as day folks. At least one Super Delegate was just laid off from work, last hire on a struggling start up business....

It is simply Democracy in action and these people were elected.

BTW, I'd vastly prefer not to see a Convention that deadlocked.
