“Yes, prove what a conservative you are by voting for the guy who was a Democrat representative during Clinton’s second term.”
So by your logic, we should never, ever vote for someone who was a former democrat or the head of a labor union.
Someone like...Ronald Reagan perhaps?
He became a Republican in what, 2000? Do you honestly think the Democrat party in the 90’s is similar to the party Reagan belonged to? Yet Virgie couldn’t figure out he was playing for the bad guys? Or was it just politically expedient to be a Democrat until it was politically expedient to be a Republican. Yeah, there’s the pinnacle of virtue you need to waste your vote on. What a joke.
