“One last idea. How realistic would it be to bus people into NH for the primary vote to “help” our conservative candidate.”
(With a Big Mama shake of the head and frown): parksstp, I think you should retract this suggestion and apologize immediately. That strategy may be legal, but it is NOT “cricket!” I hope we at FR are better than that.
Otherwise, your ideas to stop Mittens are sound.
Fine, I’ll retract, but don’t be surprised when Mitt starts busing in supporters from MA to shore up whatever challenge he’s getting from the other conservatives in NH. Even if they don’t give him a challenge, he’ll bus them in from MA and the rest of New England just to make the victory margins larger, which will then be ran ad nauseum in the MSM leading up to SC and FL.
NH wrote the law the way they did for a purpose. The purpose is to protect their first-in-the-nation primary status. I believe they figured if they wrote the law and voting eligibility requirements loosely, and voters of other states griped about having less influence, by letting them come to NH and take part, they’d be helping protect their status as the First Primary.
This is politics & the only result is winning - that can be at all cost. Was ObamaCare played by the rules? You want to live with ObamaCare rather than defeating it by any & all means?
