Here in Oregon we get GIANT amounts of flack for our closed primaries. California and Washington have both gone to this awful top-two system and we're considered tres gauche because we still make people go through the agony of filling out a card and checking a box.

Strategically, if you have two bad choices available, choose the least bad. In politics I think that pragmatism works a lot better than purity. Mostly 'cause there's very little purity in politics.

A scorned Cheney will scare the fecal matter out of McCarthy and his playmates. Sure, she’ll be of no assistance to Democrats but she’ll be a huge pain in the ass to Kev and nitwits like Greene and Bobert.The enemy of my enemies may not be my pal, but my eyes are open, no blinders needed

Potential matchup between Daughter of Satan and Son of Elmer Fudd. Sure, Elmer Jr. can try to play nice, might even decide to go hunting in Wyoming with Satan himself. It’s Looney Tunes plus in possibilities.

I really don't think she'd vote for TFG again. She'd write in her dad's name, or someone else. For sure she wouldn't vote Dem, either.

In the military, that's called choosing the lesser of two weevils.

Exactly. Sometimes the math is a bummer, but there you have it.

Better? She votes reliably for every vile policy so she is politically interchangeable with the worst they can dish out.

She would just be less noisy.

...and we can do fine without her mugging for camera about caring about democracy. Too fucking little, too fucking late.

Let them burn each other down.

...and on her political tombstone inscribe "Face eaten by leopard"...

I haven't heard any mention of giving money to her. If I lived in Wyoming, though, I would probably hold my nose and vote for her. It's like the necessity defense. Sometimes you have to do something bad to prevent a greater evil?

We made a cross-country trip by car with Ms. O's service dog. Only one hotel made a stink about the dog (wearing her service vest) and refused us service, and that was in Wyoming.

True about the dem sabotage but it's not like any Democrat stands a snowball's chance in hell in Wyoming. This is strictly a lesser of two evils calculation for Wyoming dems at this point.

I agree, but it might be helpful to consider the alternatives. Establishment repub vs. batshit conspiracy theorist maga in the style of MTG or Boebert.
