http://www.mlive.com/news/grand-rapids/index.ssf/2012/05/republicans_welcome_grand_rapi.htmlThis guy is really a lowlife. He signed an affidavit to become a Republican, then 4 days later he hosted a DEMOCRATIC fundraiser and didn't tell the supporters attending he had jumped ship. There's also some sleaziness regarding a young guy who announced his intent to run as a Democrat, then mysteriously withdrew. They're launching a voter fraud investigation, apparently. This cretin has ducked the press, saying in an e-mail that "anybody unhappy with his change in parties can get their money back." What a POS.
The GOP sucks.
