    Yup.

    Leaving, is giving them exactly what they want.

    If you are here, I'd say you're just a RINO. The "PARTY" has now moved on, without you.<IMHO> BTW, the very same thing happened to me. Interestingly, that's just EXACTLY how the LP and the CP came about.

    I haven't been registered to vote long enough to say the party moved on without me. I joined knowing the party, especially the party in Maine, had lost it's way - though admittedly in 2006 I did not realize it to the extent that I have now. But I am willing to put my time an energy into changing this, because I realize that so long as the two parties are in power and placing road blocks for third parties, you have to work within the parties to enact change. Ron Paul realizes this, and that is why, while he is offering a level of support, he is not running third party himself and instead urging that we stay involved in the Republican party as he is.

    This state allows three kinds of registration--demopublican, republicrat and independent. It is very weird being registered something besides independent after all these years. Very weird. Yet, with good liberty candidates to help in local elections and a taste of working within the party at the conventions under my belt, I'm not stopping now.

    Ron Paul has a good point. Stealing the apparatus from the thieves is easier than building from (or practically from) scratch.

    If you just got "funny", then YOU just don't "get it".

    It has EVERYTHING to do with what you just said.<IMHO>

    I think it's better to take over the GOP. I am not planning on participating. Good luck with your 3rd party efforts.
