So, we want CLOSED PRIMARIES so that infiltrators cannot disrupt our primaries and pick our nominees.

Not all want that as it will shut out Independents.

But we want OPEN CONVENTIONS so any minority faction of 25% or so can disrupt the convention in prime time?

If disruption in prime time is the price that must be paid -- so be it.

Small price to pay indeed for such a big return on investment to Obama.

GOOD!

Let them hold their own primaries for some ambiguous wishy-washy position candidates.
