I don't know if I will ever vote Republican again. I used to write myself
little missives. I still re-read one I wrote after Obama's election--called: Confessions of Republican. It was about how the Republican Party had to change and that is what Obama would really signify: change for the republican party. It was about a re branding in regards to new ideas and highlighted how there has been a great brain drain in the party and "we have been reduced to bland ideologues, scared toward freedom and liberty." And I go on to talk about culture, society, how republicans are viewed and how it can be reframed, etc.
Its funny reading it now. There was no reflection or change---if anything, they doubled down and the rampant racism towards Obama/etc ultimately forced my hand.
