I had never even heard of Goode until a few days ago and that was when I was accused of supporting him.
Seems like an interesting guy.

Virgil H. Goode Jr., a Republican from Rocky Mount who represented the 5th District in Congress for six terms, has joined the conservative Constitution Party - but he says that doesn’t mean he’s quitting the GOP. “I don’t think they’re mutually exclusive,” Goode said.
Would he suppose, also, that it would not be "mutually exclusive" to be, say, both a Baptist and a Methodist at the same time?
Or even a Republican and a Democrat, perhaps?

I believe he started out as a Democrat. And has also been an Independent.
Think maybe he’s going for the record. After this election he will have lost races in three different parties.
