The second part was more interesting to me as it caused the old brain to start working. They began by showing the states that did not allow non-enrolled voters to vote in party-specific primaries. They then outlined how some states allow independents to choose a primary, and vote in it. They even showed some states that allowed anyone to vote in any primary. The story then moved to some Independent activists that were pushing for election changes in their state to allow them a chance to vote in the primaries. Their contention was that the two main parties restricted their right to vote because they did not enroll in their party.

So I write this article last Thursday, in a nutshell calling out the Republicans as being hypocritical for not reducing government spending, yet beating the drum for reduction of government waste and spending. Lo and behold, on Saturday night at CPAC, Glenn Beck comes out, levels his anger at many people and ideologies, but saves a special piece of it for the GOP saying “One party will tax and spend; one party (the GOP) won’t tax but will spend: It’s both of them”. Obviously, he reads my blog for talking points (I wish).

If you have read any of my previous posts, you know I have no love for our two major parties. I focus on issues, and the candidate’s record, not what their party mantra is. If they start spitting out the “vote for me because I’m not in THAT party” BS, I immediately discount them as bought hacks. This is a prime example (and trust me I can come up with tons on the Dems) of GOP hypocrisy in action.
