The Republicans??? Cheating??? Not playing by the rules??? How terrible!
(Now you know how it feels to be a Democrat)
The good ol' boys in both parties want to keep the status quo going and as we see will do anything they can to keep it going. After the general election the GOP can kiss my a$$

I only switched to republican so I could vote for Ron Paul, wish it didn't matter what party you are registered with, should be able to vote for the person not the party.

It's often a dilemma... If in years where an incumbent is running for reelection in your party, you need to switch parties to have any effect on who will be his opponent.
I supported John McCain in 2000 when he was running on a "Election Reform" platform. The NY GOP locked McCain out of the NY primary.

Ron Paul's HR459 was a issue in the house yesterday, while many of the dems were opposed to it a few stood up in support of the bill, I love Kucinich's speaking time and how he looks at the dems in disgust

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- A bill that would open up previously secret Federal Reserve deliberations to scrutiny by members of Congress passed the House of Representatives on Wednesday. The measure, authored by longtime Fed critic Rep. Ron Paul, was approved on a vote of 327 to 98. The Fed opposes the bill, which would allow audits of the central bank's monetary policy operations. The Fed now releases a summary of its interest rate-setting meetings after three weeks, but does not release a full transcript for five years. The measure faces long odds in the Democrat-controlled Senate.
I just watched the voting and all but only one Reb. voted no and almost half of the dem. voted yes : )
Mitt Romney has all but won the GOP presidential nomination -- and the endorsement of most of his former primary opponents -- but just when he thought he was in the clear, Romney ran into opposition in a rather unlikely place: Poland.
Ron Paul supporters were all over Romney as the candidate visited the country on Monday, showing up in town squares with massive pro-Paul banners and chanting Paul's name outside of meetings.
The Polish Paul folks didn't end up there by chance -- a group of pro-Paul Poles have been organizing on a Facebook group, Poland for Ron Paul.
