I don't trust Charlie Crist to win the U.S. Senate primary anymore. Mostly because the wingnuts of the Republican party supporting Marco Rubio are more apt to vote in the primary than the moderate base that supports Charlie Crist. The Rasmussen Reports scared the shit out of me last week showing Crist/Rubio polling neck and neck in the primary so I make it official today. I am becoming a Republican and I suggest you do the same so you too can vote for Crist in the Republican primary. I will take great satisfaction in knowing that the Fox News watching, rabid-right wingnuts have to get one more vote because of me.To change your party affiliation for the primary: Hit on the voter registration image at left --enlarge it before printing-- and then print it out. Make sure you put your license number in box #6. Send to:

Remember, you can always change back.

Unfortunately this means you will have to become homophobic, insist that Barack Obama is a Kenyan, deny that carbon emissions affect the climate, and swear by Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity.
Are you ready?

This IS good news. Congratulations & Merry Christmas!
Rick! He's actually got a very valid point...! But, since I am already committed to and working actively as a Democrat... I can't take this advice. (which I think deserves a moments' reflection) ...:-)
Rick - you're wrong..there are lots of Republicans who are angry at the nutters highjacking the Republican party...and who don't support any of the ideas you list.
I'm with g.o.d. on this one..
Rick- Think of how much more interesting this blog will get when I start quoting Glenn and Rush as my mentors. Seriously, the Republicans do this all the time to the Democrats, I say: Back at you!
Welcome to the Dark Side.
During a graduate class, 2 people had to debate the push for bilingual education. The first debater got up and gave us facts, figures and common sense for the pro side. The I got up. I used short sentences filled with words such as "terrorists" and "infidels", "god" and "patriotism". Then I promised a big barbecue after the debate with some big animal already roasting out back. It was easy and I didn't have to do any research! I just made it up as I went along. And, the worse part was that I was the one that held the classes attention, while the other debater was dry and boring (think John Kerry).
Isn't it time that we use fear mongering? Sure, the facts are on the left side of most issues, but we have to use fear, patriotism and god to capture the attention of people that allow these influences to overrule their common sense. And if that doesn't work, give them money or something free.

Both Parties are Mirror Images of each other
On one side I see Homophobic Bible Thumpers Who swear God steered Hurricane Katrina towards New Orleans While incesseantly asking for Obamas Birth Certificate and insist he's a fascist (cluessless maybe but Fascist really?).
On the other you have full of themselve Vegeterian, Prius drivers who would have the rest of us riding bicycles to work, using candles to light our homes and eating grass (not the one you put in brownies) while insisting that George Bush is a Fascist (an Idiot perhaps but Fascist be for real?).
We are doomed.
FYI I am a "registered" republican only because I don't own a prius and it gives me something to do during the primaries.
Tom: Read Lakoff.
And, Cato, thanks for my laugh of the day. I guess I now have to own a Hummer?
Count one more fool. I changed my party affiliation (Rep -> Libertarian) a while ago. "I didn't leave the Republican Party. The Republican Party left me." However, I have just filled the form and will mail it tonight. This might be my only chance to vote against Rubio.
Thank you...Libertarian registration doesn't do you much good in a primary.
I don't have to become homophobic, I just have to be a temporary Republican. By the way, rumor states that Rubio's closest supporter is... a butterfly?
I grew up in Chicago during the Daley Sr. years. Party jumping in the primaries is old hat!
