I am a firm believer that MIGOP needs to either close its primaries, or at the very least adopt the runoff method for resolving any primary that has more than two contenders.  (Because I'm still convinced that Pete would have stomped all over Rick in a runoff.)

However, as a direct function of the interviews I've conducted of state party vice-chair contenders -- I still have two being reviewed by the subjects before I post them -- as well as my in-depth involvement in some of the behind-the-scenes stuff at county and district levels, I can tell you with some certainty that things should be a'changin . . . very soon.
