Once McLame is officially the nominee, I’m reregistering as an Independent after being a Repub for over 25 years. It’s just too embarrassing to remain in a party that no longer represents my views. Borrowing from a similar statement by President Reagan, “I didn’t leave the Republican party, the Republican party left me.”

This is my plan as well. I've been a registered Republican for 25 years, from the very instant I could vote! I remember being 5 years old, going door to door with my Dad to hand out campaign literature for Republicans back in Mineeapolis.

I think a mass exodus of registered voters would be more of a wake up call to the GOP than anything else. Money is short term...voters are the future.

I’m doing the same thing. Going Independent and told the GOP to remove my name from their membership roll. If enough people did that, they would take notice.
