Explain your use of the word "primary" as a verb.

What does it mean to you to be "primaried"?

The primaries are where the parties vote for their reps.

The Republicans need to vote in new Republicans, otherwise we will remain getting these establishment types.

It is a common enough use of the term in the US. When an incumbent politicians loses his election to run again, that is called getting primaried.

In the tortured grammar of politics, the ritual of intraparty rivalry has become a dreaded verb.
So we all must now live with this? Fine. Crazy times. But we don't have to like it and we can protest.

Sometimes I wonder if the votes against the establishment are calculated to make people like us feel like we are not completely without representation. Just so long as the votes are throw away votes, what harm does it do the powers that be?

If the ones who vote for establishment are replaced, then maybe we will get some respect.

If you think politicians being bought by special interests is a bad thing, maybe it's about time you guys stopped putting them on sale? Just a thought.

It isn't the special interests. It's the people who got them elected in the first place. Their votes reveal who they are.
