Hey, thanks for covering it!
I thought this said “current” at first. I almost flipped my lid…
This IS Great News!!!
Vaughn,
There was a rumor Goode might join the CP for the rest of his term after it was discovered he’d be losing his seat. This would’ve been much bigger news, of course.
Well, he turns traitor on the Democrats, and then he betrays Republicans. The guy obviously has no party loyalty.
Centrist Dem Chris,
Party loyalty? No, I suppose you’re right. But that’s something most people would praise–he isn’t beholden to parties, that’s a good thing.
Goode was a Democrat, then an independent, then a Republican, and now he’s a member of the Constitution Party.
Maybe he’ll try the Libertarians next!
I remember watching the debate on C-SPAN of Virginia’s 1994 Democratic primary candidates for US senator. Charles Robb (D) was the incumbent, and Goode was one of his Democratic opponents.
Hmmmm, nothing yet on the Virginia Constitution Party state web site: http://www.constitutionpartyva.com/
or at http://politics1.com/va.htm where he is still listed as a potential independent candidate.
This is good for the CP. I hope there are more to follow.
Apparently Goode still considers himself a member of the GOP too. He’s saying he doesn’t see the two as mutually exclusive.
He’s in Virginia, so there is no party by registration.
