You were magnificent.

I won't re-register, though. The Party's platform, and many of its office holders still stand for the principles that brought me into the GOP in the first place.

I intend to stay and fight for those principles for the time being. The CRP won't get my money, but it can't escape my vote and speech, especially on matters that affect party control, such as the election of central committee members.

Meantime, we can work in our capacity as free citizens ... as family members, members of churches and civic groups, associations like non-profits, and in many other ways to defend the family, school choice, colorblind policies, property rights, the sanctity of life, our heritage of Western Civilization and its religious roots and vitality, and so forth.

I wonder how the new Governor and the Bishop in Sacramento will get along? Perhaps the man of God can bring Arnold back to obedience to his faith. I am praying for that.

Keep Faith!

The Republican party completely ignored their platform - which was voted in by the majority of its members. They have an unpublished agenda going.

If they redeem themselves, I will consider coming back into the "fold" but right now I don't want to be a "statistic" for them to use in their propaganda regarding the size of the party or in voting trends.

I'll have more impact from the outside than from the inside. They will want more more.
