There are going to be primaries in 2012 and he or she who will get more votes will win the Republican nomination for President in 2012. All the conspiracy theories about a group picking the nominee in 2012 is just BS and Stupidity.

Riiiiiiiight. It’s that simple.

That’s why they change Primary rules and dates every cycle, for a good, honest primary season. That’s why they’ve changed debate rules, the allocation of delegates in key states, and whether or not the primaries are open to other party voters in a given state in each and every election cycle.

This has nothing to do with who gets the most votes per se - this has everything to do with how delegates get allocated, and which voters get to decide that in each state.

I betcha 10-1 on every dollar you’re willing to put up that by Election season 2012 every Romney stronghold will either be winner-takes-all on delegates, or disproportionate to the winner. Meanwhile, all of the other states will find it necessary to allocate proportionate to vote count.

Then to top that off, we’ll see which states decide to have open primaries, allowing Independents and Democrats to decide who gets the delegates. I’ll wager we have more open primaries in 2012 than we’ve ever had before. I’m sure you’ll find it coincidental, but the rest of us know better.

Wake up! We’ve been watching this movie for two generations. Your claims of pure and holy are as bogus as an Obama campaign promise.
