How do we prevent the most committed, ideological voters in each party from selecting the candidate? How do we keep it the domain of a deal struck in a smoke-filled room? How does this affect the winners in each election? It seems to me that, if it were up to party bosses, Scoop Jackson would have been the Democratic nominee in 1976, George H W Bush would have gotten the nod in 1980, Gary Hart or someone like him would have gotten the nod in either 1988 or 1992, and Hillary Clinton would have gotten the nod in 2008.
