Keep the GOP contests going
After 20 debates, over 20 states have voted, and I still want more from the GOP. Am I nuts? Maybe. But what would it say to people if you told them that of course we want your vote in November, but we hope your primary doesn't matter due to where you lived. Of course if you lived in Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, and Florida, we'd want to know who you liked in the primaries. But any state that votes after Super Tuesday, I hope we've already made up our mind, and your vote won't matter to our selection process. If you said that to anyone in either party before the first primary or caucus, they'd wonder if you really believed in democracy. So come on GOP, keep the fighting going. It may not be good for the candidates, but it's great for a small idea called democracy.
