Sadly you resemble the Repugnicans more than you don't. This could be a start of a change in that.

When the endorsement process is rigged by the domination of outside delegates, the activists have no incentive to provide all the GOTV effort needed to support the candidates. In the end, the party loses respect and dedicated participants.
