GOP’s bad caucus strategy

It appears that the powers that be in the Kentucky Republican Party decided to use the same approach setting up our first caucus as the Obama administration did when saving the auto industry.

Defying common business practices, the administration thought that allowing hundreds of dealerships to close, inconveniencing customers by making them drive farther to purchase a car, would increase sales.

The Republican Party apparently used the same logic by severely limiting voting places with limited parking and fewer hours.

A message to the ruling class: a half-mile walk and a three-hour wait will not stop this revolution.
