"Now you know why I completed abandoned the Republican Party after Juan McShame was nominated." McCain won because the first big primaries were winner takes all and they allowed dems and independents to vote in the repub primaries. also Huckelbey and Romney split the real republicans votes allowing McCain to will all the delegates with 40% of the vote and 25-30% of that was democrats and indep.

I didn't really see anything special or unexpected in that article, John. With the two party political duopoly America has had for nigh-on to a century now candidates mostly always run to the wings during the primaries... and then run back toward the middle (where more votes are to be had) during the general election campaigns.... Same old, same old.
