It is fortunate that the radicalism that the left displays, does not play well in the heartland.

True and it really bugs me that the nominee is more often than not chosen by the BLUE states.

The primary elections need to be rescheduled. I live in a red state and McCain had been picked---by liberals in the NE states of Snowe and What's her name--- before Texas even voted. Does that make sense?

What makes sense is a Primary Day. Where all the states vote their candidate together.

The primary process distorts support and when that amount of money is involved, corruption follows. Put a limit on corporate dollars and let the private citizen donate more. Provide a limit in funds and let the chips fall where they may.

This would mean every candidate would have to campaign in EVERY state, not just the ones to get the numbers.
