I Believe I'll change my party affiliation to Republican after
this election, regardless of the winner. I REALLY REALLY REALLY do not want someone like the Chimp to even be running EVER AGAIN. I can trust the Dems to nominate someone decent, but the 'pukes, they can't be trusted, they really blew it with the Chimp.

2. Their party is a lost cause, but
just think about the resources they will waste on you.

3. Interesting that you say that
Here in VA, independents can vote in primaries and I think in some counties, Repugs can vote in dem primaries and vice versa. How easy would it be to nominate and vote in the biggest idiot on the planet to ensure that our side would win? Oh, wait, the repugs already did that.

4. I lived in Virginia in 2000 and voted McCain
because I figured Gore was the Dem nominee regardless. By the time I voted in the GEneral Election, I was in New York, and had voted for Gore......

5. naah, why empower them
I was going with that philosophy until some DU'ers i respect,
convinced me that it was better to be registered as a Democrat, as
a formal shifting of alliances, given that the republicans now
stand for the opposite of civility and human decency across the
board.

You are a few hours from singing your thoughts to the party in power.
Presuming Mr. Kerry remembers his supporters, like a shrubster did
these past 4 years, you're now in with the winning team. Why leave?

9. My Money and my non-primary votes go to the Dems - always
I just want to be able to help excise the neo-cons from any sort of power. I want to help drive in the wooden stake.

14. information privacy being what it is....
You're probably listed on this website: www.fundrace.org

Republicans can read, some few of them. You will only serve as a
"veto" vote in the nazi party. Just, were we in germany in the 30's,
joining the nazi party to veto hitler would have not gotten you far,
and that was before the likes of fundrace.org existed.

I think the stake will be the pukes losing congress, the courts and
the executive, that this moment be remembered as the last high tide
mark of the neo-republicans, before their decline in to irrelevance.

6. Repugs are going to gut themselves nov. 3rd.
They have to push that extreme neocon right-wing back into the corrner where it belongs. I would just get rid of it all the way.

8. You'll guarantee your vote is counted that way.
I'm considering that myself. Why the hell not register as a Republican so they can send me absentee ballots, won't fuck with my registration or challenge me at polls, etc?

I can still vote Democratic, so why not?

11. I continued to register Republican long after I quit voting Republican.
I registered Independent this time, but that was only because my absentee registration form was not able to be fully sealed, and I wanted a nondescript label to be seen by those prying eyes in the Post Office.

I don't care who the Republicans put up for office. I will never vote for them again, the rest of my life. Of course, I think they're going to go under anyway. * has already destroyed the Party, and now it's staged to be tossed onto the dustbin of history.

No great loss.
