North Carolina Republican switches party affiliation:
Good for him.

I quit voting Republican in 2000 after 32 years, and I have no regrets.

Keep driving them over to us wingnuts.

Primaries ahead. If the TP guy wins on the Republican side it may set up a win for this insurgent.

Yessir, that may be a great career move. I can't believe the things their GOP has done to the real people of that state.

I recently read that another Republican in Florida is running as a Democrat for governor. Charlie Crist.

I just hope it is enough to counter the voter suppression that is going on in these states.....

I think both NC and Texas have major roadblocks in place......

show me a red state and I will show zero cases of voter fraud


I guess in Texas you have to have a special id for voting? What klnd of small fucking government is that?
