I don’t care about filing dates, I care about anyone else entering needs to participate in the process so that we can make our minds up about who deserves our vote. With the holiday season coming up, it is even more important.

Your screen name suggests that either you are from Indiana or you're an independent {or both}. If you are from Indiana, the primary voting date is May 8, and by then the field will be no more than two or three, and if you are independent in many states you can't vote in the pubbie primary.

What does the holiday season have have to do with you making up your mind?

No matter when our primary is, we still have one. We still vote in the primary. We usually have little voice in who the nominee is. But in a way, it makes us more dogged about who others choose.

The primary system is actually pretty unfair. We can never seem to get it right. All of them should be on the same day.

As we move closer to the holidays, the average person will be busy with other things as they always are. People are busy and pay less attention.

Why do you think the dems wanted the Obamacare vote on Christmas eve?

A registered Republican at this point in time, but my whole family are conservatives. With the exception of a cousin who voted for Obama. She was the turd in the punchbowl at the last family dinner. LOL
