We live in a very Republican County and the area where we live is overwhelmingly Republican. I have to assume some were voting Dem just for this primary as well.
I couldn't do it - I got to vote on several referendums we hope to get passed, as well as vote for our Representative, hoping to get rid of the idiot dem who took Tom Delay's seat. We also have a Sheriff's race that is important.
On top of all of that, I got to vote for Fred Thompson. I won't vote for McCain until I have to.
That's fair and sensible. No problemo. I'd have done the same. Down here in Ellis County, there's just not much of a race, or referendums, or anything important in the nominating side of things. So, if I could lob a teensie firecracker at Hillary, I took the opportunity to do so.
And, there was additional fun -- I got to cast a ballot on the Dem races that were contested at the State level, chosing in each case the name of the person most likely to go down to defeat based solely on the wierdo factor relating to their names.
But, still, to the degree that those voting for the reasons I did have any influence, that influence is contra-hillary. She needs help losing. Obama won't need any help losing. In him, the Dems are facing another McGovern Moment, mostly because those in charge don't have a clue who McGovern was and why he went down in flames.
