Steve Schmidt...one of the truly Good Guys. And he has a way with words ! libdem4life Oct 2018 #11

He's NOT one of the Good Guys. He brought us Palin. He is Republican. bitterross Oct 2018 #21

I'll take his defection and help. I'd take anyone's if they're consistent. nolabear Oct 2018 #23

Defected to WHERE though? has he become a Democrat? If not, he's just still grifting BamaRefugee Oct 2018 #27

Hold a grudge, much? He's more democratic than many of "our own". Joe Scarborough libdem4life Oct 2018 #39

I don't require that. The GOP is deeply factionalized and that's helpful. nolabear Oct 2018 #53

They aren't really defecting. They are just waiting for the GOP to go back to normal... Caliman73 Oct 2018 #48

I'm no political genius, far from it, but just as the South slowly turned from libdem4life Oct 2018 #54
