You gotta be honest with yourself.
It's the first step.
I spent most of my life wavering between Democrat and Republican loyalties. As I gravitated to the Democrats, they gravitated away from the qualities that attracted me. I would have been a loyal Democrat, if the party had remained steadfast in principle and action. To insist that I am a Democrat is to not accept the facts of the situation.
Well, I hope you will prove me wrong by immediately taking a principled stand and leaving the Democratic party for good.
Your conscience won't rest easy until you do.
A third party is the only place where you will feel at home.
