If a fight over our nominee is to be had let's have it behind (relatively) closed doors.

Yeah, a lot of bad blood will be had but whatever we may say here will pale in comparison to the cut throat world of a general election. To plug our ears and cover our eyes as if these issues don't exist is political suicide. The only thing such a strategy could do is make sure we're blind-sided and unprepared just as the public walks into the voting booths.

However, if we do want to cut down on the bad blood factor we could try to be polite and courteous to each other. It sounds crazy, I know, but what could it hurt?
