No it shows that the illegal immigration issue wasn't enough to get all of those phantom Tancredo voters off their butts and take advantage of the turnout. Primaries are base elections and if the base wants a Tancredo sock puppet then that puppet should sail to victory.
Similiarly, it wasn't enough to get all those supposed Cannon supporters out to vote to protect his hide.
The argument turns both ways and buttresses my point.
Apathy, which usually results when someone loses the impression their votes matters, is the deadliest trait to a politician in midterms.
Why is that difficult for you to acknowledge? The GOP is worried about it, even if you are not.
But it's clear you are unable to grasp that point, as well as the point that 40% some voted against him. Which comes back to my other point. If 2-%-5%-10% follow their lead on this issue in close districts the Majority is harmed. A few people can make a difference, and that scares you.
