I don't want to count chickens....etc.

The timeframe between January 2014 and November 2016 is an eternity in politics.

I just read a report that a huge number of one-time Republicans have switched to "Fail to state preference/Independent." While I'd love to think that moderates in the party are expressing disgust over having to choose between Rand Paul and Ted Cruz, I think the reality is that Tea Partiers (who are likely rejoicing over Christie's misfortune) are leaving the GOP for not being far enough right. Hence, I have no clue who will show up to vote in their primaries, and who (as a result) they will nominate.
