"I changed my mind 100% he is the real deal. The Republicans don't have anyone like this"

[rufus dog]

24. I had a friend tell me a couple of weeks ago...

... During the shutdown that her and her husband had decided that morning to switch to Democrats. The final straw was the Rep berating the Park Ranger at the WWII Memorial.

Her comment was "it is just too damn embarrassing for us to tell people we are Republicans, let alone even defending their actions.

I agree with you, they have a lot of the business minded Repubs that feel abandoned by the party due to the extreme actions. I also think the next generation of kids are making many parents rethink their affiliation. I was in college during Reagan's first election. It was the cool thing to be a college repub. (Even though it seemed very uncool to me) Now many of the college age kids are pointing out how big of assholes these Repubs are being.
