Roy Moore is the last straw, you can now call me a Democrat
https://www.freep.com/story/opinion/2017/12/08/roy-moore-last-straw-you-can-now-call-me-democrat-kurt-bardella-column/930454001/I have spent the better part of my adult life working with and for Republicans at every level of government. I’ve worked at City Hall, for members of the California state legislature, members of the House and Senate, a congressional committee, moderates and conservatives. From Olympia Snowe to Breitbart News, I’ve traveled throughout the entire spectrum of the Republican Party.

The embrace of Moore by the Republican Party’s top “leadership” is all the proof you need to know that this is a party that no longer stands for anything.
I believe that the Democratic Party will do more to create equality in America than the Republican Party ever will.

I am throwing in with the Democratic Party because at the end of the day, I believe its portrait of America is better than the one being painted by today’s Republican Party. And I want to be a part of it.

mailbox? We need him to vote against the GOP tax scam. Issa is on the fence due to the homeowners who are putting pressure on him due to their high blue state taxes. We need the CA Repubs to vote NO on the bill. CA congressmen alone could flip the vote in DC. Please do what you can. THANKS!
