Who should NH and SC Dems vote for in their OPEN primaries?
Open primaries (unless SC Repukes got the judge to close it, which they were trying to do).

Who should they vote for?

At first, I thought Perry to hurt Mittens

But maybe another schmuck. Maybe better to promote a three-way to put them in total chaos where
no one has enough delegates to get it. The more animosity building, the better

Who's third?

1. Operation Chaos probably cost Obama the Indiana primary in 2008
and it may have cost him the Texas primary too.

Payback is appropriate.

3. Der Googlmeister - Rick Santorum.
SC has enough crazies to vote for him and his Family Values.

6. NH's primary isn't completely open.
Voters whose party affiliation is "Democrat" can
only vote in the Democratic Primary.

Voters whose party affiliation is "Republican" can
only vote in the Republican primary.

Voters whose party affiliation is "Undeclared" can
vote in either primary. In theory, they instantly become
enrolled in that party, but they can immediately change
back to being "Undeclared".

In NH, most "Undeclared" voters seem to be actually be
Republican voters, though they often like to cross-over and
"monkey wrench" our Primary.

The date to switch to "Undeclared" status is imminent, BTW.

7. Interesting...the web is showing only 2010 requirements to change
party affiliation.
