I was just about to ask if you were switching parties. I saw it mentioned on the registration board and everyone seemed like they were in shock.

As for you switching, you seemed to be a centrist Democrat. Getting ratings like  "Moderate Conservative" makes it seem like you are a Republican and it wouldn't be that big of a switch politically since you're views seem in line with many Republicans.

As for you switching, that's your decision. Think of the platforms of each party. If you find yourself disagreeing with the GOP platform on many major issues, than you shouldn't switch, in my opinion. But this is your decision of course.

If you're basing your choice on on-line tests then the answer is simple Hell no.


Good point. I meant to mention to you if you're basing this on an online - test, you shouldn't switch. If you actually sit down, think about your views, reach the conclusion that you really are a conservative Republican WITHOUT the help of an online test, then you should consider switching.

Tweed, I hate to tell you this but it isn't smart to base what party you join on on-line tests or to take tehm too seriously.

On the other hand what are your stances on issues?

No, I've been considering it for a little bit now.

In that case, give the switching parties idea further thought.

What would make you vote for Schumer?

well there is that Michael Benjamin running for the GOP nomination (highly unlikely he'll win but Mills isn't the nominee yet). No doubt Mills will lose to Schumer but not THAT bad. I can't believe the NY GOP couldn't get a strong candidate.

I'd actually think he's more conservative.

I think he is, too.

wouldn't you say Golisano was the more conservative candidate?

So what was the original quote?

The quote that Reagan attributed to Lincoln was actually from someone who disagreed with Lincoln's views.

And who is this someone?
