That's if the Chairman can find a candidate in your precinct. If you're worth anything, though, you will have already ID'd that person before you file to run & gotten him/her to support you.

"Elected PCs cannot be removed at the Chairman's whim."

True, though you have to get elected first. The chairman would plant someone on the ballot to keep you from being elected. Right, Gary?

Anon 914 - PUT DOWN THE PIPE!

I guess the question is: are the D's buying the Hillary B.S.? She didn't flat out crush him, which tells me not all the D's are thrilled with her either.

True enough...for now. If my PC slot has new, relevant powers, though, more ppl will run for PC spots. Elected PCs cannot be removed at the Chairman's whim.

"3. Caucuses increase the value of precinct committeemen positions, a fact which may cause more persons to run for PC slots."

No, A Caucus gives County Chairpersons a greater opportunity to rig the vote.

Trump wins primaries. Cruz, more practiced in party slime politics, does well in caucuses. Louisiana borders Texas, as does Arkansas. That should worry Cruz. Cruz plays to the Plains and the Rockies, places that never had a manufacturing economy destroyed by free trade. Cruz doesn't play East.

Hillary will crush Cruz. With that matchup, we use the standard electoral map that favors every Democrat. The only candidate who can make a play for the swing states is Trump.

Anon8:49, I disagree with your statement. Caucuses are the ULTIMATE demonstration of underlying support within a party. Indeed, an open primary allows for non-party members to influence the selection of a candidate, something which I have always opposed. IMHO, Indiana's primaries SHOULD be replaced with caucuses for a few reasons:
1. Less outsider influence means that only persons who have given time and money to the party will influence its selection of a candidate.
2. Taxpayers are forced to pay for the primaries, a fact which is atrocious when primaries are intra-party contests.
3. Caucuses increase the value of precinct committeemen positions, a fact which may cause more persons to run for PC slots.

Both Independents and Disaffected Democrats were excluded from the Super Saturday contests and that will not be the case in Florida and Ohio. Caucus states have never been a good indicator of underlying support so in my estimation Trump came out ahead on Saturday regardless of the delegate count. Michigan will be crucial in determining whether or not Trump's support is waning or not. Without a win in Michigan Trump will not have enough momentum going into Ohio and Florida which are winner take all states.
Rubio is out.
