GnuBreed: Conservative Treehouse... If you change your voter registration from Republican to Independent or none, depending on state, you are giving up your voice in the primaries...

For many years after they turned 18, my sons were registered as "Independent." I kept telling them, in Oklahoma, the action is all in the Republican primary. For the same reason, Milady and I were registered as Democrats for the fifteen years we lived in Chicago.

Took a while for political pragmatism to overcome misguided idealism, or whatever their problem was, and I think they're both registered Republican now.

FWIW, which, really, ain't that much anymore, even here.
