Correct me if I'm wrong, guys, but I just had this thought: A lot of these caucus states are going to be all or nothing deals. In Washington, we will either get all the delegates, or we will get none. If we have a majority at the state convention, we can vote ourselves every single delegate (except the automatic delegates -- party chairman, etc.) and of course we would; we would be foolish not to. If we do not have an absolute majority, the establishment will not allow us to have even a single delegate. Not one. Count on it. We could walk in with 49.9% of the delegates, but we will walk out with nothing, 0.0%, because the 50.1% will stonewall us.
So this is an all or nothing thing. Either we get all the delegates from Washington, or we get none. The same reasoning would seem to apply to all the caucus states, except insofar as their process is different, not assigning all the national delegates from one central final convention. But even then, for each Congressional District convention or whatever the same principle applies: either we have a majority and totally win, or we don't and totally lose.
Thoughts? Could we come away with ALL the delegates from Washington, Maine, Minnesota, and Iowa? As well as most of them from Colorado, the three from NH, and maybe a few from Wyoming?
