Sod Off Wednesday: Super Tuesday

Yesterday was Super Tuesday. There are more primaries on that day than any other day in the election cycle. That includes Alaska, Georgia, Idaho, Massachusetts, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Vermont, and Virginia. I haven't seen the results yet, but it's safe to say that somebody needs to be told to sod off.

Since only Mitt Romney and Ron Paul are on the ballot in Virginia I'm sure several candidates are telling Virginia to sod off.

This Saturday is the primaries for Kansas, U.S. Virgin Islands, and Guam. I applaud those places for holding a primary on a weekend so that more people may actually show up. But what does that say about Kansas that it's lumped in with Guam and the U.S. Virgin Islands? Is Kansas that lame that it gets lumped in with things that aren't even states or does it require that low level of status to be clear headed enough to realize that people aren't gonna show up to vote during a weekday?

Does anyone else have a Virgin Island? Is there a Canadian Virgin Island? A Lithuanian Virgin Island? Are we talking virgin like the cute girl up the street when I was in middle school or that 45 year old greasy guy with the neck beard who out curses the 13 year old boys in Modern Warfare 3?

Actually the British do. BVI. They're real and they're spectacular.
