I'm trying not to be too disgusted with the state of politics in this country. I am especially upset with how primaries are operated. Is it just me or is it obvious that the eastern half of the country pretty much gets to decide who makes it to the primaries of the western half of the country? I'm getting tired of the progressive wing of the Republican party choosing who will be the nominee. Here is a novel idea. Why not have a primary week, where all the states would be required to have their primary within a set week, say February? This would take the focus off of any particular state and perhaps give those of us in the west who have late primaries a chance at having a real say.
Given the two top choices so far, The Toad or Romney, I'm reminded of something the Gipper said years ago, taking a small editorial privilege. "I didn't leave the Republican Party. The Republican Party left me." Are Republican's really out of touch that much to offer up for consideration Obama II, and Obama Light?
