I tend to lean conservative. Not THAT conservative, I am a NYC'er after all, but conservative nonetheless.

Today I survey the political landscape, and what do I see? I see a so-called conservative party spending out of control, totally inept in governing or keeping corruption under control, without any real plans besides blaming things on the gays, and totally devoid of any moral standing. I see arrogance, I see greed, and I see a complete betrayal of everything I once stood for. If we're going to get Tax and Spend, if our politicians are more interested in grab-ass then their jobs, if we're going to send our boys to die in <s>vietnam</s> Iraq without a plan or a reason, and if we're going to let the country go to hell in a selfish corrupt handbasket (provided via no-bid contract by Haliburton), then we might as well let the Democrats do it, because frankly they are a LOT better at it.

I voted Democrat today (except for Pirro, who I think is a good prosecutor if she would just let them send her idiot husband to jail once and for all), because those assholes at the RNC need to be sent a message.

I didn't leave the Republican Party. It left me.
