I have to agree with most of the above comments on this one. Olympia Snowe, and most of the Northeast and the far west, California side should leave the Republican party. Arnie Schwarzenegar and Snowe and the rest of the “educated progressive” wing of the party is now ignored. Republicans have been dominated by big oil, religious and multi national corporate banking wings now for years. The republican party no longer actively supports environmental concerns, health care reform or human rights. The types of issues that their party progressives know once made their party relevent. Hence, folks like Snowe, Arnie, Collins should join the thousands from both ends of the of the country and join them…that have now joined up with democrats, where they would be welcomed. Republicans can keep the deep south and their near western sprinkling of support.
