  Sorry I have to miss it. I’d love to call in and screw up Jason. It’s my life’s mission.

  Impervious!

  You can never hope to screw Jason up. You can only hope to contain him.

  There is a desire from many ‘party leaders’ to discoourage primaries and let a handful of insiders make the decisions. Grass-roots types would do the heavy lifting and serve as a chorus of political castratti singing hymns of praise to the annointed candidates and time-serving incumbents.

  For presidential elections, we went from congressional caucus to smoked-filled rooms to (somewhat) meaningful primaries.

  Participation can be discouraged by fiscal means. Compare the filing fees in Delaware with those in Maryland.

  n.b. This is NOT a partisan statement.
