These are actually pretty easily identifiable folks. They are delegates nominated by the party at the state level to attend and represent their state on behalf of the party. I'll bet you can still find last year's list. These people tend to be party activists, elected officials, and big donors (as well as sentimental nominations).

And since the McGovern-Fraser Commission in the 70's, there have been parameters (at least on the DNC side) regarding how many of these people had to be women, of color, etc.


Now, if you had used people like this as your example in the McCain thread, you may have had a point to make. Otherwise you didn't.
