What disturbs me is this. When there is a very good hardworking and caring person who happens to be Republican. The party anymore doesn't want that type. They have been pushed so far to the right that it gets more than disturbing.

My family especially my uncle is very close to Tom Ridge. He was the first homeland secretary. Tom left DC holding his nose. The guy was probably the best Gov Pennsylvania ever had .. and a very good decent person. He walked, did his job then left holding his nose .. Now why would that happen ..

I also see on the Democratic side people going farther and farther to the far left and that is disturbing also.   I am a registered independent for very good reasons although the democratic side always makes more sense to me .. but we cannot have this outer fringe either way and be successful as a nation. And the republicans seem to have gone further to the edge than most dems I see
