I think it is important to have a say as who becomes the candidate, but wouldn't it be more cost effective to decide first, then fundraise later for the real game, to defeat Obama?
Primaries are the mechanism chosen for deciding first.
Why precisely it has to be this ongoing spectacle with negative ads and posturing and maneuvering flying around...right before a repetition for the General Election...I dunno. I guess we hate ourselves.
I wasn't implying that you guys hate yourselves, just that I thought it makes more sense pooling all of your donations into
actually winning the election, rather than dividing the monies into choosing a candidate, then the actual campaign.
If I were donating, personally I would wait until the candidate has been chosen, to decide on whether the candidate chosen fits my values. And I would hate to think it is just wasting money and picking holes in your own side. A sporting team couldn't function that way, although knowing all the dirt on any other possible candidate would deflate any hardcore voter. If there is no good choice why bother voting. Just seems strange, and I can see the logic sort of, just astounded at the amount of money spent on a race, to then race.
Another thing you may be able to help me with. I am of the understanding that US folk have to register to vote, but register with the party they intend to vote for. Which just leaves the election up to those who actually turn up to vote....(while on topic, why the ******** on Tuesday? Y not Weekend?), which is more a mathematical problem then a true voice of the people. Because if you have to register as a Republican, there is little chance of you voting Democrat isn't there? In fact, there is more chance of you turning up to vote.
Unless of course it is a person, who by his very being, the personification of real change.
I digress.
There was a BBC show done on Mitt, and more particularly on his Faith and its consequences in his aspiration to become the first Mormon President. Done by the bloke who famously raged in a doco why doing a thing on Scientologist's, so I am not really impressed with his journalistic style, playing the whole naive thing. But within the clip, he interviewed a couple of Evangelical Republicans that just wince at the whole Mormon thing, and would rather not vote. That message would be sent through Church, so is Romney's chances ******** before he even turns up for the election? Much of it based on the secrecy about the net wealth of the man, and the secrets supposedly all Mormons possess.
