What would the Republican Party have to do to entice you to join it?
Me: Purge all conservatives, ditch the conservative social agenda, adopt socialist economic policies, adopt policies that would attract immigrants and people of all races, support labor, and change its name to the Democratic Party or something like that.

You?

3. They'd have to change their name to "the democratic party".
Only they'd fuck it up and call it the "democrat" party.

18. Populist economic policies will win MAJOR support for the Repubs.
There is a vacuum right now, with neither party terribly concerned with the plight of working people...

20. Maybe, just maybe, if it turned over Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld
to The Hague for an international war crimes trial, I might, just might, give it a nanosecond of consideration.

23. let's see, they'd have to guarantee to pave the way for my election to the Senate
as a Republican in either Idaho, Utah, or the deep South.

Then I could vote with the Dems and Bernie Sanders.


I'd do that in a second. I'd register as a Repo if it meant i got a Senate seat. Why not?

28. If Sarah Palin runs in the primaries in 2012 I might switch parties
to vote for her because she could never win in the general. I would switch back for November but I would love to see her go down in flames against Obama's second run.
