Writes Jay Stephenson: Trump’s spokesperson got laid into this week for blaming Obama for the death of the Khan family’s son in Iraq during Bush’s tenure. The real reason why she said it, I believe, is because after the campaign fired Cory Lewandowski and influenced Trump to pick a neocon as a VP, a decision was made not to attack Bush anymore. So what can Trump do as he’s getting hammered by Bush-era cronies this week given this newstrategy? Basically nothing. The right way to attack is to blame Bush/Clinton/Obama, but he has to stick with cliché GOP talking points that they’ve been using ever since Obama took office. It’s a losing strategy.

As long as billary is his oppenet, he's fine.
Amazing, isn't it? It's why the founders were so adamantly opposed to political parties. (As well as jews, muslims, and other suspect groups.)
I've been pushing for "Approval" voting as a superior vote system. With this system, people can vote for as many candidates as they want. The candidate getting the most votes wins. It occurred to me much more recently that with Approval voting, political parties can be done away with. Primaries become obsolete, because there's no reason to limit the ballot to one candidate per party at the general election.
Some areas have None of the Above. If None of the Above scores 50%, then they have another election without the previous candidates.

Well, with AV, "none of the above" is an option too. As is "all of the above".
I've long been a fan of the None of the Above option.
