They could cut taxes further, or eliminate income tax altogether. Nope, they wanted to spend like drunks at a strip club; so I, for the first time in my 30 years of voting, am leaving the Republican Party and joining the Libertarian Party. If, and when, the Repubs decide to return to the principles of small government, I might just go back to voting for them. Until then, Ron Paul has my primary vote - after that, if he doesn't win, I'm voting third party.
