Sometimes a Medievalist has to take consolation where he finds it
I am grateful that up to now none of the quadrennial articles about the Electoral College refer to the institution designed by the wise Founders to protect us from the vagaries of the People as medieval. Here's an example of archaic. I wouldn't be surprised to see a byzantine.
How do I know? Well, my google news search for medieval hasn't turned any up yet.

Hey, we can play this game for a few rounds. As in: time for a.... Reformation of the Electoral College.
Or: is there a ... renaissance in calls for EC reform?
Or: does the EC prevent... warring states?
