Poll question: We've heard reports of people switching from R to D....
over the last year or so...How many of us have heard of people going from D to R?

Not to say it doesn't happen but have you read about, heard about, or know someone who's going the other way?

Are these reports normal occurences?


Gonna keep this simple (4 choices).

1. Which brings up the question, how could people switch parties that easily?
I mean, either you have a certain set of ideas OR YOU DON'T! For chrissakes, why do people not think nowadays?

2. mostly i hear of republicans to democrats
Edited on Mon Jan-28-08 08:16 PM by mathewsleep
because of two reasons.

the first is pessimistic.
the second is optimistic.

the first is that bush has fucked over the republican party. splintered it into a million pieces
the second is that there are some democrats who don't hate them for their believes.

5. I'm sure that if you visit the conservative caves you'll find lots of bouncies.
Every one of the sub-freepers has a story about how the whole family switched to (R) because they were so disgusted about Hillary's tolerating Bill's bj, or Obama's middle name. They're all lying, of course, but that's just what Republicans do.
