A Thinking Reed

"Man is but a reed, the most feeble thing in nature, but he is a thinking reed" – Blaise Pascal

The primary is closed (to me, anyway)

I registered independent here in DC partly because I figured the primary race would be essentially over by the time they got to us. Shows what I know. Not that I’m naive enough to think that a single vote could tip the contest, but the “Potomac primaries,” at least on the Dem side, aren’t totally irrelevant at this point. So, go vote tomorrow if you’re registered! 🙂

  1. I don’t get it. Even leaving aside the primaries, what’s the actual advantage in NOT declaring a party affiliation?

  2. None at all that I can see. It’s purely emotional – I was a Republican until 2002 when the GOP really started to go around the bend, but have been unable to bring myself to register Democrat.
