Thanks to the Republican National Committee’s allocation rules, the votes of “Blue Zone” Republicans — the more moderate GOP primary voters who live in Democratic-leaning states and congressional districts — could weigh more than those of more conservative voters who live in deeply red zones. Put another way: The Republican voters who will have little to no sway in the general election could have some of the most sway in the primary.
For example, three delegates are up for grabs in New York’s heavily Latino, Bronx-based 15th District, which cast just 5,315 votes for Romney in 2012. But there are also three delegates at stake in Alabama’s 6th District, which covers Birmingham’s whitest suburbs and gave Romney 233,803 votes.
A civil war is looming (again) for the heart and soul of the GOP. We saw it in 2012. The three main actors are:
1) Evangelical crazies
2) racist loons
3) business interests (who are becoming less and less influential in the GOP as they either become Democrats, or do not bother voting)
Who will emerge from the clown car and win the clown show this time?

Well. Except that in the last 5 years, the results of elections absolutely disagree with you.
Since 2010 Republicans now control the Senate, Control the House by historical margins, Control the most governorships, Control the most state legislatures.
Obama got lucky in 2012 when the GOP establishment made the mistake of pushing through the establishment candidate the hapless Mitt Romeny. That election was they GOP's to lose and they certainly did it with that strategy. They learned their mistake.
The DNC now makes the same mistake by forcing through King Hillary as nominee. She will go down the same way.

After what happened in Paris, do you think anyone was won over by the absolutely disgraceful answers the Democratic candidates gave last night?

Yeah and the first two are the loudest and froathing at their mouths. The silent majority however don't want those. We'll see in a year at the latest.
