Today I took the plunge. I changed my voter registration from Republican to Independent. I have been a faithful Republican for more than 50 years but no more. I will vote Republican when I see good conservatism but otherwise abstain or vote for someone else. Until I move from California to Texas that probably means I will abstain. So be it. The Republican party has lost me. I like the sound of it-Independent!

I can understand that. A vote for the Republican Party now means a vote for Amnesty among other small acts of treason. The Democrats at least tell you to your face that they are your enemy.

Good for you. May many more join us.

I did the same thing back in 2007 right after Bush said, "See you at the bill signing". And not once have I regretted it.
btw...you should be sure to let the GOP know what you did and why the next time they call you seeking contributions.

The only viable courses of action are: 1) Take over the Republican Party and make it a Constitutional party; 2) Destroy the Republican Party and replace it with a Constitutional party.
Where does becoming an Independent fit into either of the above plans?
To: uscga77
Congrats. Now you can’t vote for Tea Part candidates or against GOPe in primaries.
Smart move.
To: uscga77
Where I am, if you tell them you’re independent, they’ll sign you up for the Independent party. Telling them no affiliation works better.

The one advantage of staying R in some states is that this is required for you to be allowed to vote in R party primaries. So you get your voice in which candidates they run.

The Obama Administration Culture is based on lies, persecution of political opponents, and violating the US Constitution.
Under the leadership of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and Speaker of the House John Boehner, the GOP Establishment Congressional Culture is based on becoming more like the Obama Administration Culture.
By design, the Congressional GOP Establishment has become a doormat speed bump for Obamacrat politicians on the very wide, and well lighted Highway to European Socialism.
Without the capable cave-in expertise of McConnell and Boehner, the successful fundamental transformation of America into a weak, financially devastated, morally corrupt, unreliable, former World Power would not have been possible.
To those US Senators and House members who still support McConnell and Boehner, remember Einsteins definition of insanity:
INSANITY IS DOING THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN AND EXPECTING DIFFERENT RESULTS.
