And, the phrase used in a previous post is not actually an invitation so much as an exhortation of scorn and contempt tossed down as a gauntlet from one man to a significantly lesser one.

The truth is, our country's electoral system is horribly Byzantine and not very democratic, but the only time anyone gets exercised about the idiotic complexity of it is during elections.
