If you are a vulnerable democrat in a republican-ruled state & you like to vote

You should be registering as a republican.

Republicans are always fiddling around with voter rolls around election time, and they concentrate on Hispanic, Black, the elderly and of course now they include students too.

IF you have an "R" next to your name, you are probably more likely to remain a registered voter.

When primary time comes around, if it's not an open primary, and you do not want to "tip your hand", you could always vote for the opponent you want our candidate to face.. The looniest one would always be my choice

This also gives the republicans a false sense of security when they start thinking that they are "winning hearts & minds".

It sucks to have to resort to devious tactics, but sometimes you have to fight fire with fire
