Sen. Nancy Riley reregisters as Democrat


The Lt. Governor candidate that received 23% of the vote in the primary. This signals either a big shift like that in Kansas where the moderates are leaving the GOP; or it is just a personal action taken by Sen. Riley. By switching parties this helps the democrats in their attempts to keep control of the Senate. I personally hope this is the first step of moderate Republicans to leave the party that has been taken over by radicals; for example when was the last time a moderate got elected for a statewide office by the republicans? A short clip of the news conference is below.
