Yeah. To be honest, I don't think this switching is good for either side (wasn't he a Dem before he became a Republican and now a Dem again, right?)


And I H.A.T.E the two party or ANY party system for elections.

Why can't we just vote for someone who we personally agree with, not who we are told we agree with because of our party affiliation?

The party system allows dumbasses to vote without ever doing their(sp?) own research. Its such a retarded system, because honestly it just promotes conformity and allowing others to think for you.

Right now, they just seem like a bunch of pies.
