I decided to change my ways. After a lot of soul searching, I've realized that the GOP does not have my best interests in mind. I can no longer support an administration and a party that cannot look beyond the immediate future and see the long-term consequences of their actions.

I never thought I would say this, but I'm turning blue. While some of you may call me a jackass, I am now proud to...
