The Republicans made a wise choice in choosing Cleveland to host their 2016 national convention. They seem to at least understand that all their efforts need to be going to winning swing states that voted for President Obama. They need Ohio and they need it desperately. Having their convention in Cleveland with be an economic boon for the region and could allow them to move some votes in their direction. However, regardless of where they hold their convention, if it’s a freak show, it’s going to be counterproductive.

So, they’ve made a good start, but their real challenge is that they have collectively gone insane, and giving a major multi-day advertisement of their insanity is going to bite them in the ass. Under the circumstances, their best bet would be to just cancel their convention completely and have the delegates vote by mail.
