Sharper Point: What should we call the fourth round of Super Tuesday?

Some media outlets are branding the five combined primaries as Super Tuesday Four. That name is not only unoriginal, but it’s plain boring.

Basically, things could get exciting. So why are we giving the day such a dull moniker?

I got to thinking of some other ideas. I’m not in love with what I came up with, but I’m just spitballing here:

  • Kinda Great Tuesday
  • TGI Tuesday
  • Moderately Interesting Tuesday

Those are just a few. You can check out a few more of my ideas in the video above.

The point is, this could easily be labeled Gosh Is This Thing Over Yet Tuesday. People are getting tired of election news, so we need something to excite them!

Super Tuesday Four isn’t going to do that.

If you have some ideas for what we should call the latest round of primaries, drop me some suggestions in the comments below.
