Shame on him. What is happening, and has happened in CO for far too long is bad enough. This year is worse because they did not even allow a straw poll.
In 2012, CO’s straw poll was for Santorum. But, somehow, delegates were for Romney.
This year no straw poll at all.
The anger and frustration come from those people who couldn’t cast a vote and know that if their side won the voting process, the delegates would represent them.
You know, representation of you.
What happened in CO highlights the major problem with Republicans at the national level. We voted, over and over now, to overturn business as usual in DC. We have sent in so called Tea Party candidates, turned out the establishment.
And lo and behold, that candidate gets to DC and votes opposite of everything they promised on the campaign trail.
That's because the straw poll in CO is non-binding.
Delegates are only bound in CO if they sign a pledge. It's been that way in CO since 1912.
What's the point in holding a straw poll if it doesn't bind the delegates to the winner?
