Sounds like good advice...to a point.

I hope the non-representative primary voters of New Hampshire pick a good candidate for "the rest of us", who won't get a choice by the time our Primaries come around. Otherwise, it'll be pretty hard to coalesce around a twit.

"Vote for who you like in the primary" sounds pretty good until you find that most of the candidates are gone by the time most of us in flyover land get to vote.

Then the solution is to fix the primary system, not to stay home or vote 3rd party out of frustration.

Anyhow, many years the winner in Iowa and New Hampshire have a rough time winning the nomination - they spend so much time and money to win those small states that they have a bunch of trouble with the rest of the states.
