You Mean We Actually Have To Count 'em?

Huckabee protests Washington caucus results
In my Jan. 12 post I gave us credit for being, if not a first-rate democracy, at least a banana republic. Miracle Mike thinks our inability to get the vote-count right makes us worse than that. In a TV interview this morning, he downgraded us to Soviet-bloc satellite state. Ouch!

He also threatens to call in a posse of lawyers, who seem to be getting a lot of work these days, what with all these contested elections, bankruptcy proceedings, shareholder suits, congressional hearings, regulatory investigations, insurance-policy cancellations, celebrity divorces, etc. etc. Who says complacency rules the land?
