Awesome sauce. I wonder if Obama’s newfound love of faggotry had any bearing on this decision.

Unless he’s added the letter “h” to his name, it’s Artur Davis, not Arthur Davis.

I’m not kidding.

Interesting, but how much can you trust an ex-Rat politician?
Time will tell.

Good for him. Now I wonder how long it will take Cory Booker to make the same change.

Yes, both are too liberal for my tastes, but if the Democrats start losing people like them it underscores how radical and statist the Democrats have become. (Besides both Ronald Reagan and John Stossel started out as liberals.)

Artur Davis always struck me as a genuine person, and not a classic, southern black Democrat plantation politician.

Arthur Davis, former Black Caucus member, switches to GOP... Arthur Davis was first elected to Congress from Alabama in 2002. The Harvard Law School grad was quickly tapped as a rising star among Democrats. He became a Senior Whip for the caucus, co-chair the New Democrat Coalition and even headed up the Southern region for the Democrat Congressional Campaign Committee.... Yesterday, he announced he is now a Republican.

This is a MAJOR blow to the demoRATs, especially given the fact that he is BLACK and was a member of the Black Caucus. No wonder it's being covered nonstop wall-wall by the mainstream media -- oh wait, guess it isn't. /s

In any case, this is a big deal. Wonder what made him flip over and leave the demoRAT plantation? I can guarantee you, his former "black" colleagues on the Black Caucus now hate him with more hatred than we can hardly imagine.

More importantly will he be a CONSERVATIVE, or just another Rino Repub?

Not sure whether this is a good or bad thing. The Republican party is already in decline. Will this accelerate that decline?

“As I told a reporter last week, this is not Bill Clinton’s Democratic Party”
But now the Republican Party is.

There, I finished it for him.

Based on his blog post, I would say he thinks like Reagan “The democratic party left me”. That certainly dose not make him a conservative, but he clearly is having a rethink of his parties communist party take over, for clearly the communists have take the democrat party over.

And they are *allowed* to infiltrate the GOP?

There really is no difference, is there?

His eight years in Congress showed him to be a thoughtful, independent and energetic member.


Yep, those are the beggining signs alright. gateway signs to conservatism.

How long will it take for some idiot to post here, telling us that this switch is a very bad thing?

The guy’s still confused. He believes that the democrat party of a generation ago is subtantially different than it is today. I reckon it depends on what you call a generation. A generation ago, Nancy Pelosi, Barney Frank and Fortney Stark were in the congress and Bill Clinton was President. Yeah, those were the good ole days alright!
