McCain never did get the most republican votes. It was democrats and "independents" that gave him the nomination. If the RNC doesn't change the way our nominee is chosen they are doomed to repeat their mistakes.
As far as the Bob Barr and Ron Paul voters I tell them President Obama thanks them for their vote.
I agree 100%
I don't think we can afford to wait for the RNC to change the process on their own, they likely won't. How can we convince them to change the process? We need to take back the Republican party and we will have to start with making sure RINOs don't get nominated to begin with in order to do that.
I voted for Paul in the primaries but, like everyone else who is sensible, realized that in the general election you close ranks behind the person who was nominated and vote accordingly.
