    With one caveat. If you're a Republican you can fuck a 13 year old girl, assault women, violate laws, lie your head off.

    Just say you are a good Christian who worships Trump/ DeSantis and hates gays.

    JLL identified as a cradle robber and married his cousin. Those were unacceptable social mores at the time. Wouldn't surprise me if they become completely acceptable in the coming years.

    ....Red is gray and yellow white
    But we decide which is right
    And which is an illusion.....

    You thought Herschel Walker was awesome. Why would anything surprise you, you'll believe anything you're told to. So when the dumbest of the dumb say it's a slippery slope from transgender people having rights to allowing people to marry children, of course their moronic voting block will believe it.
    I mean hell, you think DiGiornos with some added toppings is good pizza.

    In a pinch, it is.

    I agree with this part:
    Of course, if you open the primary, then you encourage voters from the other party to ratfuck you by crossing over to vote for the least-electable candidate.
    Better would be to go to a single primary for everyone with the top two advancing to the general regardless of party, as some other states have done.
    Even better would be to combine that with ranked-choice voting.

    But reality matters. As Rumsfeld might have said, you go to vote with the political system you have, not the political system you might want or wish to have at a later time. In 2022 we have the system we have.

    And in that system, Betsy is a spoiler.

    ....and, to a larger degree, so was Ross Perot.

    Kind of proves my point. You were willing to buy in with no knowledge whatsoever.

    And your knowledge at the time (well over a year ago) was precisely what? I thought it was cool he was running. Big deal. When I heard about his past, I called him a deadbeat, among other derisive terms. What he has done is despicable. But, again, only recently has all of this come out.

    Uncle Phil believes he's already purchased the optimal number of voters for her.

    I see Drazen and Betsy as non-starters.

    I'm confident Billups would as well.
