In a few short months, primary voters will begin selecting the Republican presidential nominee. The two debates thus far have been underwhelming. A third is approaching on Nov. 8, but it, too, promises to be the kind of unhelpful event that lacks the virtue of at least being entertaining. Yet I’ll be watching — tuned in and deciding which candidate to support. I’m not a Republican, but I’ll play one on Super Tuesday, March 5.

    Yep. Republicans always see the big R and vote for it. They don’t give a shit about political beliefs. Believing they might not vote for R on the ballot is childish.

      Democrats outnumber Republicans 4 to 1 in Colorado. Independents still make up 70% of voters. That means using this strategy typically puts a moderate on the ballot who draws in the most voters.

      Obviously this screws over ultra left wing types but they don’t get independents voting for them either.
