#3 Cui bono. She gets attention, money and unknown future benefits. People who want the continued distraction and turmoil have a lot of all three. QED

#4 I watched an interview of 2 young male voters this morning. One voted Trump the other Haley. The Haley voter said he was a Democrat but felt his vote was best used for Haley. When asked if he would vote for Haley or Biden for President he said Biden.

#5 ^ So she actually lost much worse than was reported in the media. Crossover voting should be outlawed. Just another method of gaming the system, in my opinion.

#6 Haley staying in is a plus for Trump. He wins each primary instead of being "coronated." Everyone (well, almost everyone) loves a winner.

#7 Haley is Obama in drag. Running a DEI campaign to collect $, only Obama was lucky enough to catch the car he was chasing.

#8 @ #5 - I think NH has the same system...don't know how many more. But, if the Constitution lets the several states handle elections, then so be it.

#9 But, Haley is a disgusting thing. That she refuses to quit the primaries sure hints that there are other forces behind this. Besides, what's the RNC doing about this? /rhet

#10 Haley did well in the counties surrounding the cities of Columbia and Charleston. Also the county where the Marine bases are.
Lotsa govt employees, I figure.
