Welcome to the Party

Former Democrat, Congressman Parker Griffith of Georgia, has joined the Republican Party.  (Link here.)

Why?  

Obamacare.  It's as simple as that.

According to Griffith (in the story linked above) . . .

"I believe our nation is at a crossroads and I can no longer align myself with a party that continues to pursue legislation that is bad for our country, hurts our economy, and drives us further and further into debt."

. . .

"I want to make it perfectly clear that this bill [Obamacare] is bad for our doctors.  [He might know what he's talking about here - he is a doctor.]  It's bad for our patients.  It's bad for the young men and women who are considering going into the health care field."

Who's next?  Bart Stupak?

Come on in conservative/Reagan Democrats.  The water's fine.
