Democrats Helping Schwarz -- Another Reason to Vote Walberg

Just how liberal is Joe Schwarz? He's counting on Democrats to get him a majority in next Tuesday's primary.
Jim Berryman is no Republican. But he will vote like one next week.
The former Democratic state senator will vote in the Republican primary so he can support U.S. Rep. Joe Schwarz over challenger Tim Walberg.
Four Democrats are running for the same seat, too. But Berryman expects a vote in his party's primary won't matter. The winner likely will lose to Schwarz or Walberg in November.
We need to be helping the real Republican in the race. We need to help Tim Walberg.

Other primaries stay the same. I can vote either on a Democrat ticket or a GOP ticker in a regular August Primary. All can vote in the "nonpartisan" races on the ballot (Judge, ballot proposals)
The only rule is that I can't split tickets in a primary. I can't vote for Mike Rogers in his primary and also vote in a democrat in a primary race as well.
I think this is Michigan's last election cycle with an open primary, isn't it? So this is the last chance Schwarz gets in order to try and get Democrats to vote for him in the primary.
Hopefully not enough Democrats are politically astute enough to vote in the GOP primary in order to elect the big spending liberal.
