Dems had better get smart and 'register' as 'Republican' if they want
to be able to vote in every state. Once they are behind the curtain, they can vote anyway they damn well please. But unless this is done in many places, lots of Dems who think they are registered will find out at the poll that they are not.

REMEMBER, IF BUSH WINS THIS ELECTION IT WILL BE ANOTHER STOLEN ELECTION.
We will have to take to the streets and to the courts to fight for our country.

1. That probably would be the thing to do in some places but...
its entirely too late to change anything now.

2. Some states don't make you register as either a Democrat or a
Republican. They don't here in SC (I guess they just all assume that we're Republicans). Anyway, I regularly vote in Republican primaries to better choose the worst candidate for my Democrat candidates to run against in the general election. :evilgrin:

3. You don't have to register by party in Texas....
And it's too late elsewhere. Besides, it's dishonest. Sounds like a Republican tactic.

In Texas, your voters' registration card does get stamped in you vote in a party's primary. This prevents you from switching if there's a runoff. I wouldn't do this even if I had a chance to nominate a sure-to-lose Republican. What if I was in an accident? They'd go through my ID's & think it was a Republican!
