Casting ones vote gives one the right to bitch about the choice made. If you chose not to vote keep your yap shut or do something about it. (VOTE). Just my 2 cents

I agree fully. If you didn't/don't vote, you don't have the right to complain. By not voting, you give up that priviledge.

I was listening to a talk radio show that was explaining that there are some states that are "winner-take-all" when it comes to delegates, and some are porportional based on the popular vote total for each candidate. I would opt for the porportional option so that you get a truer sense of the election process. Plus it would instill a positive competetive aspect to the election process.
(It would cause the candidates to spend ALL their campaign funds on the campaign, and not themselves if they decide to bow out early.)
