We aren't ready for your fancy “laissez-faire democracy” Robert. Hell, we don't dare actually let a popular vote in the general election, but must rely on the electoral college to give us nicely rounded numbers.

I agree though, the system is self-correcting. The fairy tale I tell myself so I can sleep is that Conservatives across the country will reject Trump even if nominated. The more states he wins, however, the harder it is to believe the fairy tale. I will take some solace in that if Trump were to win, God forbid, the left will block every dumb thing that comes out of his mouth. And they'd be totally within their right to do so. I might even clap.

I'm not quite ready to drink the left's kool-aid, but damn it's getting awful hot and humid over here on the moderate right.
