Should Republicans Look to the Democratic Primaries for the August Elections?
For the first time in quite a long time, I am faced with no real motivation to vote in the Republican primary. Lamar, Jimmy Duncan, Bill Dunn, and Jamie Woodson are all unopposed in their primaries.
This begs the question - should Republicans in my situation vote in the Democratic primary to pick general election opposition that we would prefer to run against?
Not that Lamar, Jimmy, or Bill need the help, but seeing a Democratic ticket of Kenneth Eaton, David Hancock, and Charlotte Meyer would sure make things almost laughably easy for the Republicans in Knox County.
I have criticized others who have been faced with this situation previously for voting in Democratic primaries, but I am starting to come around to the idea.
Any thoughts?

Rob;
I have never voted for a Democrat. I cannot in good conscience cast my vote within a political formation which, in modern times, is doing the work of the Prince of Darkness in this country. To vote in a Democratic Primary would, in my mind, aid and abet the agents of Lucifer by inflating their voter roles.
