Completely agree with this because the primaries generally bring out the most fervent people, regardless of whether they're on the left or the right. In California, with the GOP, there were all these right-wingers nominated in the primary that got smacked by Demos. Until Repubs decided to get behind electable Gubuhnaytor Ah-nold Schwannegar (sic).
