Its clear that three candidates should drop out for the good of the people, and allow a conservative to win.

The "DEMOCRATIC" party (which, one assumes, owns the MEA) certainly HATES DEMOCRACY, n'est ce pas?

Also, the Marxists/progressives/Democrats/teachers' union loyalists within our Country just don't seem to understand that when they successfully undermine the voting process that the system is likely gamed from then on, and THEIR votes just might mean nothing in the future.

OK Michigan Freepers:

Does Michigan have an open primary?

If so, what have you done to change it?

The leading candidate is Wendy Day -www.electwendyday.com she is running against a bunch of men who are perfectly fine conservatives, but the MEA has a beef with her; she was pivotal in building the Tea Party in Michigan, & was one of the first to join the battle for Right-to-Work in Michigan. She is a big threat, and she is winning. the Dems are trying to get their voters to cross over to the least dangerous candidate they know of.

He’s billing himself as a strong conservative. I have no idea why he accepted the endorsement in the first place.

Its a mixed bag. You can only vote one way in primary races but if the democrats only have one choice in theirs, they’re free to play.

Nope, they absolutely LOVE it; they are living their dream right now as we are a REPUBLIC. The GOPe are democrats, pure and simple and we are seeing it proven over and over again with open primaries.

Why hasn’t the GOP State committee changed that?

Likely just as much as YOU've done to impose term limits on the U.S. Congress and Senate.....Well, what have you done?

That’s the change we got about two years ago. 1 step at a time.

We have closed primaries, and caucuses for Presidential elections.

We’ve come a long way in Michigan over the past 4 or 5 years. Ruth Johnson and Bill Schuette were the true gems of the 2010 election cycle.
