Welcome.    I have a question though -- honestly, not being confrontational at all.   How do you go from being a Hillary supporter to staunch conservative in one election cycle?   That is a big leap.

I hate to say this, and keep in mind, this is only my opinion, but if the Blue-Blood Republican Washington insiders don't get their shit straight, and STOP these attacks on Sarah Palin, the Republican Party is going to be in for a rude awakening. As for me, I'm a conservative. Never been a Republican.
NAMBLA is a left-wing organization.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

Though I don't speak for THC, I'd say when your party goes so far off the radar that it is unrecognizable to you, it might be time to make the change. Looking at the lineup of thugs and henchmen Obamarx has put in charge, Id say the Democrat of the JFK-era is dead and buried.

You mean they killed it before they buried it?
"Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of Liberty." - Thomas Jefferson

"All you have to do is look straight and see the road, and when you see it, don't sit looking at it - walk!" -Ayn Rand
 
"Those that trust God with their safety must yet use proper means for their safety, otherwise they tempt Him, and do not trust Him.  God will provide, but so must we also." - Matthew Henry, Commentary on 2 Chronicles 32, from Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible

"These anti-gun fools are more dangerous to liberty than street criminals or foreign spies."--Theodore Haas, Dachau Survivor

Chase her.
Chase her even when she's yours.
That's the only way you'll be assured to never lose her.

Hey THC!  Know you from CapHill and your blog, so aware that such conversions do happen; it did with me.  Welcome!
