Bob Ehrlich is a RINO. Electing RINOs is counter-productive, if not down right destructive, to getting conservatives elected. I therefore think that Palin did Maryland conservatives a great favor by endorsing the conservative candidate over the RINO. I just wish she had done the same for Arizona.
Here’s my theory..Palin endorsed Murphy to get even at Erlich for elevating Steele to national prominence..
A primary is like a scrimage game to see who will sit on the bench and who will be a starting player in the real game. Of course, the scrimmage is necessary to prepare for the real game.
So some are arguing that we should not have a scrimmage and we should not prepare for the real game.
In politics, the real game is to build an army of ground troops that get-out-the-vote. The scrimmage is a necessary exercise in building that ability to get-out-the-vote
