Maybe the RNC will implement the same rules in all states. No need to vote. They'll decide for you.

Cutting out voters makes the party look corrupt.

Aw Jeeze! And they are working so hard for the faithful comrades in the party.

And the whining continues.
“Its not fair! Its not fair!” the states determining their own political processes AS THE US CONSTITUTION GUARANTEES THEY CAN by not saying they can’t.
Geez, what a bunch of whiny big government fascists.

I would say at this point....because of the internal issues of the Democratic Party as well...there’s no choice but to move onto multiple parties....maybe five or six of them, and force some extreme changes. We need options to vote for some other party.

This guy is not telling the whole truth—indeed perhaps not any of the truth:

More from the article:

So Cruz maneuvered, and plotted, and got his people named as Colorado delegates.

And there was never a vote among Colorado Republicans.

Instead Cruz won 34 delegates in a system in Colorado that didn’t even bother to ask voters.

A rigged system?

Certainly looks that way.

Is that the way Cruz voters want him to win?

I guess they don’t mind. It’s Trump who’s complaining, not Cruz.

But expect Trump to start calling Cruz by a new name. Lyin’ Ted will be out. Sneaky Ted will be in.

Maybe it’s not Ted Cruz’s fault.

But it definitely is the fault of the GOP in Colorado. Cutting out voters makes the party look corrupt.

A lot of people are learning that a primary is a party event governed by party rules. The general election, however is a government event, governed by the laws of the land.

To me, this constitutes “taxation without representation”.

If they can do this, what’s next? The elites pick the Governor? The senators/congress? Impose new taxes and regulations?

A dangerous and anti-American precedent has been established. The camel’s nose is in the tent. Before long other liberal states will try the same trick, then Presto, we’re a third-world nation.

Hillary and Obama will love it. Bernie will think it’s all his doing. The GOPe will writhe in orgasmic spasms whilst cashing their K-street checks.

The next step will be the elites appointing the President with all elections cancelled.

The country “of the people, for the people, and BY THE PEOPLE will be a thing of the past.

After that, the party elites will cancel the Constitution and all of our fought-for rights will go away. Guns, bibles, and wealth will be confiscated.

We will become Cuba II.

Where’s the FEC on this? Where are the federal lawsuits? Where are the riots and uprisings? Where is Congress?

Are legalized pot Coloradans so stoned they don’t see what’s happening?

Taxes pay for your right to vote! The Colorado delegates should be declared null and void. Otherwise, what’s the difference between this and Hilary’s “super delegates”?

They voted. They elected representatives who, through a convention process, selected delegates. That’s called a republican form of government, representative democracy...sort of the way the entire Federal Government works. It is exactly the way senators were elected before the 17th Amendment.
