How about we all register as Democrats and vote in conservative candidates in their primary? The electorate is so illiterate about what goes on the world that even if it made the news they wouldn't know and would vote for the candidate with the D.
I told my wife I’m registering as a Democrat. Everyone I vote for loses so I may as well!
Probably belongs in the Friday silliness thread. But, I couldn’t resist.
Who says they’ll run any conservatives in their primaries?
But conservative candidates don’t even run in their primaries. It will be Operation Chaos all over again and that didn’t work out at all.
Nope. It’s what we should do. I’m serious.
As Democrats, all we have to do is run our own candidate. Most localities just require a certain number of signatures.
Love it!!!
People actually thought Obama was more conservative than Hillary!
What you’ve described is Rush’s Operation Chaos. I’m in a very red part of Ohio and almost always vote D in the Primaries. Problem is the D choices mean Dumb or Dumber... never a conservative.
We’re probably from the same area (SW?) The difference would be we have to put forward our own candidates too. In Ohio, that required signatures from what I can tell.
He actually might be. That is the scary part.
They lie to us all the time. Register as Democrat, run on a platform of taxing the rich & giving everything & anything to the poor. When you get elected, be responsible.
That's when you vote for "Dumber" :>)
:)
At first this seemed like just another silly idea, but on further thought it’s completely diabolical. If done right, and with the cooperation of tens of millions, conservatives could be the largest single “special interest group” inside the democrat party. It would completely disrupt their game dead in its tracks.
I like it :)
Maybe that’s what they’ve been doing to us???
I like it a lot blogger, thanks for offering up the good idea. Being in Texas now, I don’t think I have voted in a meaningful primary in a damn long time, if ever.
I’m going to do it, it’s time to shake things up a bit.
