Think how blissful life must be for the insipid dolts who have no
expectations of their elected officials other than they can be selected
simply by voting a straight-party ticket...they're never disappointed, and
history continues to repeat its mistakes!

I have a primary ballot in front of me now which *requires* me to select a
single party, and then vote *only* for candidates in that party. Ain't that
just ducky?

There is a sound reason for your plight.

Here in Missouri -
Our PRIMARIES are wide open, but....

It can lead to all kinds of mischief if a
bunch of Democrats get organized and
select the weakest Republican candidate
to run against their more electable one...
or vice-versa.

Now you have the 'rest of the story'.
Go in peace, my son. g
