In every November general election since 1998, Democratic Congressman Dennis Moore publishes a list of “Republicans for Moore” either online or in newspapers.
A number of “Republicans for Moore” have followed the party defections of prominent Republicans to the Democratic Party, such as Lt. Gov. Mark Parkinson (once the KS GOP chair), former Attorney General Paul Morrison, State Rep Cindy Neighbor, and JoCo DA candidate Rick Guinn.
A list below shows 170 former “Republicans for Moore” who are now registered Democrats. Where these folks ever really Republicans? Aren’t most “Republicans for Moore” simply Democratic Party activists?
Are political party affiliations more like picking a color, e.g., “red” vs “blue,” or does one’s political party affiliation say something about one’s philosophy and core set of values?
When many of the “Republicans for Moores” only support left-leaning candidates and causes, it’s clear they’re mostly Democratic Party activists.

The problem with Moore is widespread. The media loves him they are all Barking Moonbats.
The Pelosi Poodles have spread such a huge PR blanket that with help from Soros they have him covered even in the area of support of the military.
I just poked around on his website and the biggest lie is the first one about his support of the military.

In the mean time where the heck is Jordan and why isn’t he countering these lies?
