We’ve got the CO party hack system figured out pretty well.

“The CO delegates were originally slated to all go for Jeb Bush. There wasn’t chance in the world that they were going anywhere else.
No one planned for Jeb to be sidelined, but Trump did it anyway.

So Jeb dropped out.

Since he has suspended his campaign, they needed an insider to be a place holder for the delegates and that turns out to be Cruz, who will control those delegates until the Convention, then, after a few slight of hand tricks, they are slated to go back to Jeb, or maybe Mitt.

Why wasn't there a caucus with a presidential vote, as Colorado had held in previous years? Because this time the Republican National Committee had ordered states to bind their delegates to actually vote in line with voters' presidential preference. Colorado Republicans didn't want to do that, so they got rid of the presidential vote.

That is, the purpose of Colorado's rule change was explicitly antidemocratic. It took power away from regular voters and handed it to the sort of activists who would be likely to spend a lot of time and energy participating in party conventions.

These were the rules, but they weren't democratic rules.

On the mark and voters will not forget or forgive the nonsense. The GOP will pay for this, rightfully so.

Been saying that since McAmnesty, who really thinks he was the people’s choice after TWO amnesty attempts?

Followed by Romneycare.

Puleeze...the Republican power broker ruling class knows best. We are just Proles. Democrats should be really PO’ed because of their “So called “ Super” delegates. It’s their elites.

Regardless of anyone’s current presidential choice, I have a feeling all of this nonsense (serious matter, but reality show mentality on both sides of the aisle) is going to lead to the end of the Electoral College (not that we’ve actually used it in the last 100 years or more). After the 2000 elections there was a Democratic outcry to remove the EC from the Constitution. After cities burn this summer, it will be a national mandate. Donuts for everyone here if I’m wrong.

I think it was Boss Tweed that said “I don’t care who the voters vote for as long as I get to pick the candidates.” Pretty much says it all as far as I’m concerned.

The cry baby gets half a BILLION dollars in earned media and still whines about his inability to compete within the rules established a year ago.

We are a REPUBLIC. We are not a democracy. There is a difference. For a reason.
