Purloined Primaries and Confounded Caucuses
I have never voted in Wisconsin primary* in which the results meant anything. I thought this year would be different, but I am disappointed once again.
Now I wonder how much mischief idle Republican voters can make in the remaining Democratic primaries and caucuses. Those contests will make a difference. Even if I thought such trickery to be ethical (which I don't), I would be terrified that my machinations might have horrible, unintended consequences. For instance, if I thought Hillary was the weaker candidate and I voted for her in the primary, and she were elected president, could I look at myself in the mirror? Or would it result in a lot of razor nicks on my already scarred face?
*It may be the case that I have never voted in a Wisconsin presidential primary at all. My memory fails me.

It is sad when the future of our country can be controlled by democratic sneaks who think by voting for McCain they can give us the Republican nominee least likely to win. Somebody was thinking.

Jeff.
I'm not sure I could look you in the face if you voted for Hillary.
Knicks and all.

Huckabee could still pull a '76 Reagan, which means he could then pull an '80 Reagan. Hmm...
