Nice move, guys! With friends like y'all, we don't need enemies...

Blame the voters for not voting for a candidate that they didn't want? How about the local party apologizing for failing to select a better candidate? Or how about not selecting a candidate that repulses a critical voting block? I won't vote for a gun grabbger or gun grabber-lite. Don't bother to blame me or people like me when you select one to run for office.

Well, the pro-life-approved candidate in the primary turned out to be "damaged goods" (VERY crooked business deals that revolved around defrauding retirees) and this pro-choice candidate wanted to turn off state Medicaid funding for abortion. This wasn't a case of "half a loaf," even--this was turning down 75% of the loaf because the "party" (actually, the OTHER voters in the district) didn't agree with them on every last jot and tittle.
