    Never!

    Never, in the history of our Republic, has a candidate for a major party Presidential nomination dropped out of a race before all states had a chance to vote. Never!

    And never, in all the Presidential primary seasons that we've seen in America, have the voters in any state had their votes in the primary be meaningless. Never!

    I'm from Rhode Island, and I know that our primary votes have always been enormously important. Always!

    What? I'm talking out of my @ss? Oh.

    Never mind!

    (I'm really sick of this "every state should have a chance to vote" BS - where were all you people for the past 30+ years, when the voters in the final 20-30 states couldn't matter less? Hypocrites.)
