(19,458 posts)many times they're conservatives who are troubled or disgusted by the lack of compassion for all of the citizens. So the Ryan/*Romney ticket will push many many republicans and independents to the left, once they realize that their lives, their neighbors, their children, are nothing more than a chart on a power point presentation.

(19,326 posts)given all the voter suppression that seems to have escaped Holder's attention (except for a few token gestures),
and given Citizen$ United, and last but not least, given that most of our nations' votes are counted secretly by
GOP owned voting machine companies (which has never been fixed)..
notice that two of the above three heavily pro-GOP phenomenon have just been put into place, since Obama's
election, in preparation for 2012.

Here's a Teaparty For Obama..
There is no denying that people are more angry at the Republican Party than the Democrats.

(3,056 posts)but became those folks that switched over to Reagan and Bush in the 80's, then learned their lesson and came back to the light. When I was working the Clinton campaign, I sent Dad an "Another Republican for Clinton" button, which he proudly wore to the polls! He said he got some dirty looks, and a couple of grunts, (Florida, don'cha know!) but he just laughed at them.
The folks holding this sign probably are those good, decent, solid, moderate to liberal Republicans that have been drummed out of the party since they have functioning brain cells. These two are still holding out hope that their party will return to decency and common sense after this election cycle. So after the repubs run a ticket of Christy/Coulter in 2016, we'll probably see them with a banner saying "EX-Republicans for Hillary"!

(22,000 posts)There seemed to be quiet a few Republicans that voted for Obama in 2008. We could use their help again.

(47,675 posts)We have few if any major primary challenges on the Democratic ticket. By registering Republican, I can strategically vote AGAINST candidates during the primaries. The general election is anything goes, but PA requires a party affiliation and you can't switch it at the last minute. I did that in NH, but there you could walk in, change registration on the spot, and change it back on the way back out.

(12,504 posts)I've googled several ways, using several statemtns and finally came up with just one article for a dude who says he will vote for Obama, but feels Bain records speak "positively" for themselves.....but I can't find a site.
Seems to me buying twitter'ers would be in the same category as setting up a fake "dems are pro Romney" sites.
