In 1992, Angle helped resurrect the Independent American Party, the Wall Street Journal reported. The party reportedly favors low taxes and opposes gun control, illegal immigration, abortion, gay rights and "global government." Angle rejoined the Republicans in 1997.

So? Maybe she was pulling an operation Chaos type thing, voting in the Democrat primary, which kept her registration as a Democrat until the next primary she voted in. That's how party registration in Texas is registered. We have a lot of Republicans here who will show as registered Democrats until they vote in the next primary. What does any of this have to do with her positions on issues now (or then by chance?)

Got it. She became a democrat during the Reagan years, but voted for him for president anyway. Interesting. I would never become a democrat for any reason, but something made her do it. She seems to be a political chameleon and possibly prone to making registration decisions based on political expediency. Still, hope she wins big. Harry’s got to go.
