The job of manning the polling stations does not fall on the people who were going to vote in the primary caucus. It's not their "fault" that the polling locations were overwhelmed.
Who runs the primary caucus for the democrats?
Thank you so much for once again blaming the voters themselves for creating the problem (what with their "showing up to vote" and all), and then reaffirming that yes, it was in fact a problem because you saw a little blurb on CNN.
Something could have been done about the situation. Oh and that blurb was headlines on CNN
Congratulations you're making excuses for people who went to vote for the Texas caucus.
If the people that were going to vote for the primary caucus didn't expect a high turnout on such a close race I have little sympathy for them.
If you were die-hard supporters of Clinton you should have stayed.
If you were upset at the lateness of the cuacus why not have the time for the caucus change or the staffing of the caucus (One of the voting locations made news on CNN because of this

A registered voter may vote in any party primary regardless of his own party affiliation. When voters do not pre-register with a party before the primary, it is called a pick-a-party primary because the voter can select which party's primary he or she wishes to vote in on election day. Because of the open nature of this system, a practice known as "raiding" may occur. "Raiding" consists of voters of one party crossing over and voting in the primary of another party. The theory is that opposing party members vote for the weakest candidate of the opposite party in order to give their own party the advantage in the general election effectively allowing a party to help choose the opposition's candidate. An example of this can be seen in the 1998 Vermont senatorial primary with the election of Fred Tuttle for the Republican candidate.
The pundits are talking about the youth vote, but the senior vote is a much bigger demographic with high turnout. If Obama is the nominee I predict a Republican landslide among older voters of all races and genders.
Disagree: An Obama nomination will bring out a massive number of young voters who didn't register in time for the primaries who happen to be BLACK.

It's very difficult to combo with a digital pad. Try playing any of these games and you're guaranteed to struggle with D-pad: King of Fighters X / XI, Tekken 5, Soul Calibur 2/3(Because of the 8 walk run), All street fighter games (Shoryuken and Hyper Bomb is difficult to pull off with D-Pad correctly), and Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 (The Counter-Strike of fighting games).
Nevertheless the pros still use Joystick controllers which the setup would be similar to the arcade setup of Street Fighter 2 (1 joystick, Jab, Medium, Fierce, Light, Short, Roundhouse)

From my experience this "news source" creates many articles based upon speculation and rumors. Also, they "spin" the information to make it seem as if the article was entirely correct about the issue.

To save everyone from the endless chain, here's the original post the OP is complaining about:
Good grief.
Let's dissect this post:
1) misspelling of ridiculous. I don't know why, but when someone spells it rediculous, I lose respect for them. Still hooked on phonics or something? Of all the typos, that's one of the "Hey, everybody! look, I'm a moron" ones.
2) Groupthink. Not a single original thought. Hey everybody, did you know that M$ uses vaporware to dissuade competition? I'll bet you didn't! Hey, I knew a guy who read Microserfs!
3) Wrong application of said groupthink. This is not a case of vaporware. It's just some guy working for MSFT who has yet another lame idea. Those are nothing new from Redmond.
4) even your sig, "My Karma ran over your dogma."...geez, see any other interesting bumper stickers lately?
Like I said, no original though, nothing. And you got modded +4. Shame on you, mods.
You were modded troll for a reason: List item 1 proves it.
I suggest you stop posting this nonsense and move on. There are better battles to fight (and win) than this one.

The Clinton camp is invading the "internets".

True she will have more delegates yet if Obama wins it will neutralize her primary victory.
And if Obama takes all the other state elections?
Stocked rised to 60% and Diebold just rejected the offer.
I think we may have been set up. Hook, line and sinker.

The Midwest and most likely East are dealing with some serious snow storms. People are spending 2 hours to get to work; it is ugly out there.

It needs to be said.
There are companies that have still improperly embracing technology to suit their needs, or lack insight into implementing technology.
Chicago is a good market for tons of organizations, schools and business that have any decent foundation in technology to suit their needs.
I'm referring to Chicago, not any of it's suburbs.
