I hope you are not operating under the assumption that the majority of GOP voters give any more thought to voting than pulling the party lever, as the Dems do. Incumbency rules.

In a recent Ohio Republican primary for senate, RINO DeWine got 74% of the vote and conservative challenger Pierce got 14% of the vote. There were very few posts about this race on FreeRepublic in the run-up to the election. Yet the mindless 13% posted over and over again about how they don't care if the Democrats took control again. Pathetic.

What?

My post was about choices in a Republican primary -- a conservative candidate vs. a centrist candidate.

The voters in the Ohio primary chose the centrist RINO over the conservative by a wide margin. The voters are responsible for their choice. The voters are responsible for what they get.

Simple, really. What other point is there to make?
