The primary is the time to turn out the Lesser-of-two-evils types. You know, that secondary election to select candidates where roughly 25% even bother to show up.

If all the whiners concentrated on reforming the process rather than trashing the GOPe pick of the cycle, we might actually get somewhere.

After the McGovernites got shellacked in 1972, they went to work reforming the process and taking control of the machinery, the rules and the allocation of delegates.

When I suggested we do the same in 2008, it was McCain this, McCain that, McCain is a RINO and lousy candidate.

When I suggested we do the same in 2012, it was Romney this, Romney that, Romney is a RINO and lousy candidate.

I made specific common sense proposals which were, by and large, dismissed with the foregoing type of whining. The basic problem is that states which seldom, if ever, deliver electoral votes to the GOP nominee in November have an oversized role in selecting the candidate.
