And last time around FL primary turned out exactly like NH, except NH had Huckabee third and FL had Giuliani third.
If population is everything, we should just get rid of the electoral college. Allowing candidates who may have good ideas but need to show they can play in smaller states to match their smaller funding is precisely what a primary should be about.
The big-money candidates can compete at the bigger stages earlier, wiping out the smaller ones who could build momentum. Why don't we just toss aside this whole system and simply let the ones with the most money win after a certain cut-off date?
fl is NOT an open primary where DEMS decide our options early >
NH needs to stop its open primary or get out of the way. leftist formerly from Mass gave us McCain and hope to ram thru Romney .
