Conventional thinking is that the longer the primary drags on, the more it hurts the eventual nominee because they’ve had to fend off criticism from primary opponents as well as spend money to run against primary opponents.
That’s true, however, let’s just say one of the GOP candidates has already wrapped up the nomination. At this time, the media (who works on behalf of the Democrats), would only have to focus on demonizing, demagoguing, belitting, caricaturing 1 person. At this time, they still have to divide that time between mainly 3 people.
I’m kinda thinking that the longer the primary process, the better. Believe me, the media is going after the GOP candidates pretty hard right. Just think what it will be like when there’s only one to focus on.
Exactly and worth posting 3 times. ;)
