After all said and done, I would have to agree with you. It does open the system up for abuse.

Texas Primary Totals Democrat Hillary Won by Republican Crossover Vote Texas Exit Poll Data Rick Casey Columnist Houston Chronicle Rush Limbaugh Dick Morris Strategy Paid Off for Republican McCain

Hillary Clinton said on Fox and Friends that no Texas Republicans crossed-over to vote for her, to prolong the race so that the democrat candidates will continue to vet each other, beating each other down, all to the benefit of the Republicans, but Hillary is so far off the mark that it vividly displays her pride and stubbornness, as if she would not welcome republican votes under any circumstances, as she denies that the Republicans caused her to win in Texas.
Houston Chronicle columnist Rick Casey reports today that of the roughly 3,000,000 voters in the Texas Democrat Primary, a whopping 700,000 did not cast votes for a Democrat U.S. Senate candidate, which portrays the obvious, there were no Democrat senatorial candidates for whom those 700,000 wanted to vote. And why is this? Well obviously, the vast majority of them were Republicans!
Hillary won by about 100,000 votes, so for her to say that no Republican support caused her victory is one of the strangest statements you will ever want to hear. It’s as plain as the nose on her face, but she’ll never acknowledge it, as she will try to fool her supporters into thinking they did all the heavy lifting in the Texas primary for her big win, like a sneaky mother fooling her kids for a ”greater purpose.”
