Here's what I perceive is logically wrong with the process of Democrats voting in Republican primaries and Republicans voting in Democratic primaries, my friend.

Let's assume that all 50 states allowed everyone to vote in both primaries. Let's also assume that both parities perfected strategies to sabotage the other party and force the nomination of the weakest candidate in each party. Then we would have a case of the weakest candidates from both parties competing in the general election. As a conservative, I confess to hypocritically liking the idea of being able to sabotage the Democraps, but I surely would not like being done to us. Today in Michigan, numerous Democraps attempted to do just that.

But, yes, if I were free to screw with the Demohack-it Party nomination by voting for a weakling, I damn sure would. Human nature. -g-

Of course, I will be all for getting as many democrats as possible to vote for our candidate after he is selected.

What I object to is the opportunity for democrats to vote in our primaries (or vice versa) just to cause mischief.

That's what I think is wrong.

I know that I am a minority of one on this here, but that is still how I feel.
