Isn't this technically illegal? And it's not as though the voters don't have mechanisms to replace candidates whom have defrauded them. How soon after winning the election do they mask off, right after being sworn in?
Nope - It's up to the party bosses to vet their candidates but state laws and policies (the primary system and open primaries) in general have tended to destroy the concept of the party so everything's interchangeable.
There's no reason die hard conservatives could do the same to the DNC.
