Most people are completely

Most people are completely ignorant of how this works, and they take their spoon-fed information like the good little kids they are. Then they vote for the "presumptive" nominee, because "we like winners!!" PFFFFFFT!!!

It's another really good reason to get out there and educate people.

It was 828...

...officially, last I heard.

They are trying to "force" this so much, so hard, trying to fake it true that I get this feeling karma is gonna bite them square in the ass, somehow.

But the RNC

Doesn't have Superdelegates. That's just an informal name the Dems use. What do you mean here?

the Republican Party does have unelected delegates

McCains website says there are 153 RNC Superdelegates
www.gopconventionreport.com says there 168 of them
Its a lot less in total than the Dems

From www.gopconventionreport.com

To be fair, the Republican Party does have 168 automatic delegates to the national convention. These individuals are the Republican state party chair, national committeewoman and national committeeman from each of the 50 states, the District of Columbia, America Samoa, Guam, the Northern Marina Islands, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. As elected representatives from each state and territory they comprise the executive committee of the RNC and oversee the operations of the national committee. They have been, in accordance with the rules of the RNC, granted automatic seats at the national convention and make up 7% of the delegate total. To be clear, these delegates are not selected via a caucus or the primary system like the other 2,212 delegates.

Medically-induced psychosis...

gives you a state of euphoria instead of pain.

He's including super delegates

He's including 77 RNC - Super Delegates.
His website says
"RNC member count is based on our campaign's direct contact with RNC members"

counting chickens before they've hatched!

Texas and Ohio haven't happened yet----maybe if he keeps saying it, proclaiming it, he can speak this into reality!!??!

They must be getting delusional.

There was a post here on the DP earlier, or yesterday, that McCain had 840 or something, Grabbing delegates now out of thin air too??
