Wherein it Becomes Substantially Harder to Complain About Partisan Sandbagging

By wt

Glanko posted here about the efforts of Democrats in Michigan to sandbag John McCain by voting for Mitt Romney in January's primary.

At the time it seemed pretty distasteful.

And now Republicans are engaging in the same behavior, attempting to sandbag Senator Obama by voting for Hillary in Texas and Ohio.

That makes it a lot harder for Republicans to ever complain about these kinds of tactics again.

Come on guys, let the people have their primaries. These are party elections, not opportunities to sabotage the other party's candidates.

And it's still pretty distasteful.
