Hmm. Hadn’t thought of that. Thanks.

While I’m pondering that, I will say that this is exactly one of the reasons I think Rush’s stunt was too cute by half. I object to “teaching” people that it’s okay to view one’s vote as nothing more than a poker chip to play around with.

Demonrats has been doing it for years, hence McLame as our nominee. What is good for the goose is good for the gander. (I happen to prefer my goose with an apple stuffing and a blackberry sauce.)

Politics is a game of chaos. Nothing more.

And your vote IS just a poker chip, whether you feel morally indignant about the fact or not.

Don't hate the sinner hate the sin. The Libs have been doing it for as long as I can remember. About time we gave them some back. Politics is a dirty business no matter who is playing.

By the time the Texas primary rolled around, the Republican nominee had already been chosen, so those Republican voters wouldn't have been choosing their own nominee anyway.
