Comments on: All Politics Is Local https://whynow.dumka.us/2008/03/15/all-politics-is-local/ On-line Opinion Magazine...OK, it's a blog Mon, 02 Jun 2008 15:18:12 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.3 By: Bryan https://whynow.dumka.us/2008/03/15/all-politics-is-local/comment-page-1/#comment-35107 Sun, 16 Mar 2008 17:35:53 +0000 http://whynow.dumka.us/2008/03/15/all-politics-is-local/#comment-35107 Well, we did have the “smarter” Bush as governor for 8 years, including the redistricting, and the Democrats lost their real leader when Lawton Chiles died just before the end of his term and many senior Dem pols jumped to the Repubs to maintain their power.

We need a national primary to cut through all of this crap, remove the money advantage, and stabilize the process. It will also build the party if you have to be a registered member to vote in the primary.

It’s only one office and one election every four years. It shouldn’t be eating up all of the oxygen in the political atmosphere.
