Ran as a Democrat in 2012, Republican in 2014, and now a Libertarian. What a loyal party member.

Opportunist. His sponsored bills are more in line with conservatives/Republicans, but if I had to guess, I'd say he picked whatever party was favored that year so he could ride their success into office. Worked in 2014 with basically no money spent too.

Well, most politicians are opportunists to some degree...

The whole point of Virginia's post is that the guy is an opportunist to a *large* degree. Can you stop being so incredibly pedantic?

No, i can't. It's in my blood...

I agree that smoltchanov is an idiot, but I'm not sure what exactly is "opportunist" about switching your affiliation to an irrelevant third party and torpedoing your own chances of getting elected.

No more idiot then you are)))). Most likely - less....

Can we make our posts about ideas, not other posters? Smotly has contributed more to this board than most.

Lol...YMMV on that one.  But yeah, I put him on my ignore list and will be happy to move on.

I did the same. Probably - earlier.....

Great, he's my assemblyman.  I'm being represented in the State Assembly by a f[inks]in' Libertarian...

But probably he wasn't better as f[inks]in' Republican, was he?)))))
