I believe the RNC weighs heavily on the rulemaking. It is ultimately a problem with the GOP Establishment (GOPe).
Many states are comparable in narrow aspects. I doubt Arizona and Mississippi are comparable in politics other than the primary rules which the GOPe has established.
The point is that McCain is a de facto democrat. If that upsets you, then you have good reason to be angry.

My view is actually worse than yours. I think McCain is a mentally deranged individual, and he’s been that way his whole life. I think his time in North Vietnam only made it worse. There is seemingly, a mechanism within him to make every situation worse by reason of his involvement. When I was a kid, we called people like him $hit disturbers. People who got off simply as troublemakers.
