Re: Let’a primary linda:
A great idea. Ever wonder why we South Carolinians haven’t done this already? Here’s the sorry story:
We have lots of good, strong Conservatives in South Carolina that would be light years better than linda in the Senate.
South Carolina having open primaries is the problem. During the primaries, several people, some much better than linda, will run opposing linda. But on primary voting day, because it’s an open primary, the RATS cross over in droves and vote for linda. linda wins the primary and, since SC is a strong red state, goes on to win the election.
The SC legislature is beginning to grow some balls and is making noise about closing the primaries.
Can’t happen soon enough for me and lots of other Republican voters. But until the law is changed, linda has a job for life and she knows it.
Feel free to share these reasons with others who share your opinions.
If you’re sure somebody else could win the general election, okay, but there’s a good chance the Democrats could take back the Senate and it would be awful if some stupid primary challenge gave them the opportunity.
Oh, that's right! I remember now about the SC open primaries. Ugh... open primaries just don't seem right to me.
The SC legislature is beginning to grow some balls and is making noise about closing the primaries.
That's great news... about time!
