Why do you think that it’s a conspiracy? There’s no such evidence of a conspiracy.
When has the conservative movement EVER made a serious attempt to change the primary schedule to make it more rational.
The simple fact is, the conservative movement is too confident in the rightness of our message, and to impractical to admit that we need to concentrate on correcting the flaws in the process.
Most conservatives figure we just need to be better at explaining, and better at organizing. The fact is, we need to correct the errors in the rules.
But that doesn’t mean the moderates have “fixed” it against us. They haven’t. The right could easily unite and switch the primary state order, but we never even try.
I’ve watched the last two GOP primaries very closely. McCain was broke, flying coach by himself in June 2007 , about as popular as poison ivy after pushing amnesty TWICE, yet by March 2008, he’s the GOP nominee.
Mitt Romney, father of Romneycare, blueprint for Obamacare, father of gay-marriage who nobody wanted because he neutralised two of the biggest issues, yet by March 2012 he’s clinched the nomination before many red states voted.
Yes, I do think the RNC has the process rigged to get the nominee they want.
You watch, by next March Jebster will be the presumptive nominee and FreeRepublic will become a free-fire zone between the noseholders and real conservatives who will rightly refuse to vote for Jebster.
