No. Reagan said, “Trust, but verify.” And he was being a politician when speaking about the Soviet Union.
I am not constrained by such things as he was.
So I say, “Verify, and then trust will come.”
If a Democrat wants to switch parties, that’s fine. But I want to see if his actions reflect his words before I trust.
Arlen Specter was my Senator, so I’m a bit pessimistic when it comes to things of this nature.
Any real opportunists will get penciled out in the party primary.
It depends on their voting records now.
