Here it comes, my least favorite part of the New Hampshire Primary. We have a short time left until ballots are marked. Everyone who was ever going to get in is in and some have bowed out.
Here comes the phase where some candidate’s supporters feel that the best way to sell their favorite candidate, settled on candidate, or in some cases, messianic candidate, is to lay waste to every other person running for President who is not their choice.
The most embarrassing thing about hearing, from someone who should know better, that some candidate is a bad choice because _______, and then they repeat untrue left-wing talking points like a parrot.
Another tried and true method of dismissing a candidate is to proclaim they have no chance whatsoever of wining. There are two problems with this practice.
One: YOUR candidate can go from top banana to whale dung in a nanosecond if he does something foolish in front of cameras, or is set up by the media who have their own horses in the race.
Two: Some people go through the effort of running for office just to make sure a certain issue is presented to voters. They do this at their own expense most times. Instead of recognizing this reoccurring fact some political junkie/experts label that candidate a loser. I thought NH activists were smarter than this.
The worst part of the New Hampshire Presidential Primary is what it does to conservatives on a predictable schedule. It fractures any relationships that would normally be built by working for similar conservative causes.
Every election cycle leaves disgruntled supporters of failed conservative candidates who take it out on the supporters of the “the guy who made my guy lose.” And some hold grudges for years. In fact, it turns out a new primary comes along and starts the process right back up again before many fences are mended.
Don’t count me in on this game. I have seen this happen over and over again for way too long.
