Open primaries are such a common idea worldwide that the US might be the only country that allows an idea as crazy as open primaries: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_primary Note how the article doesn't mention even one other place that has them, since they probably don't. When Britain has its party leadership elections later this year for example, only members of each party will be allowed to vote. Other countries are either the same, or dispense with any democracy and just have party leaders choose the nominees. The former is good, the latter bad (the people should have a say!).
Beyond that, saying that anyone who supports Hillary is "Third Way" is both quite insulting and patently absurd.

There is one party in trouble now, but it's not ours! It's Trump's, as he tears apart that party. We're doing fine, apart from the constant failures to come up with a way to get Democratic voters to vote on off-year elections. But this is a presidential year, so no such issue this time! It's going to be a good election, I think, and all the polling is looking good as well. The Dems should pick up multiple Senate seats, have a good chance at winning back the Senate majority, will probably win the Presidency by a wide margin, and we should gain in the House and in state-level races, too. Things are going well, for now.
