I wish everybody would grow the Hell up!

Remember when all the Democrats were bitchin’ and whinin’ in 2000 about how Gore got most of the votes but Bush won the election?
We had to explain the dang constitution to them!
It ain’t the people who elect presidents it’s the states through the electoral college.

Well all you pissers and moaners, it ain’t the people who pick the nominees, it’s the party.
And more often than not the party agrees with the voters but it is not REQUIRED to do so.
If you don’t like it, switch parties or form one of your own, otherwise put the big boy pants on and stop being a bunch of wimps...

If that ain’t enough there is always Article 5 or the 2nd Amendment in the US Constitution—both designed to set things right.

That’s terrifying, but if it’s tried, the Republican Party will simply collapse and Ted Cruz won’t even be elected dog catcher.

Trump shows up with less than 1237 delegates.

Cruz, Rubio, and Kasich show up with a combined total of delegates greater than 1237.

No one wins on the first ballot.

Then, Rubio and Kasich throw their delegates to Cruz.

Game over, on the second ballot.

Fair and square, that’s how Conventions work.

You heard it here, first. Read ‘em and weep.

The Trump party ends in Ohio….

Voting for the GOP nominee myself, whomever, however. Thinking our delicate 2016 sensibilities wouldn’t have survived political party conventions as they were for most of US history.

Ted was also ranting yesterday about Trump asking the people at the rally to say they’d vote for him.....
DUH...that’s the idea of all this, isn’t it????

Ted is a petty little whiner.
