On recent politics

In recent primaries, voters have been erratic, or so the media says. Some will vote out incumbents. Some will vote to keep incumbents. Some Tea Party people will win. Some folks endorsed by the President have won.

The media cannot figure it out.

I think I might have found a pattern...

Look at every race, and watch as the more conservative candidate is often the winner. But more than that, the candidate who would do "the least harm" is almost exclusively the choice.

In Arkansas, Lincoln was the incumbent Senator, and a liberal. But she won her primary. Why? Her opponent was even more liberal and had a Union and Big-Government backing and ideology.

In Utah, incumbent republican senator Bennett lost the primary. Why? He voted for the "stimulus." His opponent is against overgrowth of government and won.

In South Carolina, a man nobody knew won the primary against a powerful political figure, all because folks don't want more of the same runaway government.

So, to predict a race, I suggest this year we look at which candidate is in favor of more restrictions on government and fewer restrictions on We, The People, and you will have a likely winner.
