Ramsey was the best candidate in the primary. He was actually a conservative, not just a RINO masquerading as one. Unfortunately, he lost the primary, and we have Haslam. This happens in Tennessee a lot, apparently. The RINO party leadership always pushes the most liberal republican possible.
At any rate, the primary's over and Haslam is the republican candidate. Let's hope he can stay on the right side of the aisle.
Open primary is the cause and too many conservatives split right bloc
State GOP here did not endorse anyone....not this time but they did with Corker.
Haslam just had so much cash too.
