Or were you not trying to be funny?
Here's a LTTE from the DMR for Blouin/McGuire:
At last
Finally, someone in politics who votes for the person, not the party ("Blouin Running Mate Has Been Republican," March 1).
Who cares that Dr. Andrea McGuire has been both a registered Republican and Democrat?
Many of us have done the same thing in order to vote for the most qualified person. I know I will be changing my party affiliation in order to vote in the primary.

Recognize the last name? republicans will be voting in the Democratic Primary for who they perceive to be the weakest candidate (except for here in the First District where we have a republican blood-feud going on). Right now, especially after his dismal showing in preference groups at the County Conventions, that candidate is Mike Blouin. Great, just what Democrats want - republicans telling us who we should vote for.
