I know I would, and I appreciate that. A win this fall would not shake things up in the Republican party though. The carnage that would leave behind would be unacceptable to me even by itself.

The party must implement a nomination selection process more favorable to conservatism. Letting democrat crossovers and independents vote for our nominees is suicidal.

It’s like C-Span breaking people out by Liberal, Moderate, Conservative. You and I both know the L and the M go against us 8 times out of ten.

And we allow them to ifluence our selection. Just damn.

Agreed. If nothing else, this primary season is an exhibition of the danger of “open” primaries. Such a thing should never be.

I’d rather find myself as a disenfranchised Conservative unable to vote for a GOP candidate in the primary than have a bunch of jilted Dems and Indys voting the GOP side of the ticket.
