FATS LIMBAUGH GAVE ME THE IDEA

During the 2008 primaries, he encouraged his listeners to switch parties and vote for Hilary Clinton just to screw up the Democrats. In Arizona, you can switch parties and vote in the primary but you have to affirm that you really do want to vote for your choice. I would not meet that criterion, so I never bothered to switch.

BooMan seems to have gone Limbaugh on us and is urging his/her readers "to re-register as Republicans" so they can vote for Huntsman in the NH primary. Even if this is legal in NH, I do think it's immoral. As a matter of political strategy, though, I think BooMan is mistaken because we need to emphasize how crazy the GOP has become, so instead of voting for Huntsman, one should vote for Bachmann or one of the other nuts.
