So what will happen if one says (with fingers crossed) "I am a Democrap?" Will you be tarred and feathered if they find out differently? Will you get on mailing lists (I hope so, so I can tell the Dems exactly what I think of them)? Will the long arm of the law pistol whip you? What are the real consequences if you lie to them?

Lynn Ashby was the editor of The Houston Post before the Houston Chronicle was allowed to purchase that paper and shut it down.

He said that he alternated parties every primary cycle; he said that this provided him with the most campaign literature mailings.

There are times where one "needs" to vote in the opposite party's primary in order to have a say. Decades ago Texas was a "Democrat" state and since some seats would be unopposed in the general election, the only way to have a say was to vote in the primary election.

Some Dem's have gone RINO and have to be defeated in the primary these days.
