A fellow blogger gives the impression that the Republican Party is crumbling down and running in droves to be rescued by the Democrats, and not just any Democrat, Hillary Clinton!
It goes to show you that you can spin anything the way you want to in politics. Excepting the truth for what it is would be a slap in the face for them I guess. But, “deep down in places you don’t talk about…..” you’re all Republicans anyway.
The link below is the one that I’m referring to.

“Republicans are turning out in droves to vote in primaries right across the country. Only it appears many of them are not turning out for a Republican candidate, but for Democratic presidential nominee Sen. Hillary Clinton.
NPR: Republicans Turning Out in Droves to Vote for Clinton
He provided the NPR link, so thank him for that one I guess. I tried to ask him the question below, only to have the no comments allowed remark ( convenient for those who do not wish to openly debate ).
Are you trying to imply that republicans are leaving the party to align themselves with the democrats?
Yes Republicans are voting in the primaries now for Hillary. Simple explanation is that they wish to see the democrat party fighting among themselves.
With the two Democrat candidates bickering and flinging mud at one another it leaves the Republican candidate out of the negative campaigning, surely to start in earnest once the Democrat party has their nominee.
So in efforts to continue the dog fight and watch the Democratic Party tear itself up, Republicans are voting for the ‘underdog’ Billary. I am sure they would be voting for Obama right now if the situation were reversed. We’re an equal opportunity group of people. But what ever the outcome, rest assured, the Republican Party will not allow a Democrat (a socialist one at that) to win the Presidency of the United States.

I fear so many Americans are blinded by people and words that just make them “feel good.” Do you think we just don’t want to think? How hard is it to read about history, analyze facts, compare opinions and points of view or how difficult can it be to just listen carefully? I worry that our ignorance will lead us to destroy that which so many have fought and died for…freedom, liberty and pursuit of happiness. So much is taken for granted, so much has been forgotten. We are ungrateful and spoiled. I pray that the few who are left that have not yet caught the “ignorance is bliss” disease will triumph in the end. Great post. Enjoy the read very much. Your courage and straightfowardness is much appreciated and needed.

It starts in the home. We are the vaccine for the youth, by not letting them fall into the abyss of ignorance we save are tomorrows. As for today- we hold our officials accountable for their actions slowly weeding out the corrupt. Unfortunately it seems as though we are quickly losing the battle of the sinking ship.
GREAT comment and reflection, pushing the discussion in the direction of truth.
