House just needs a simply majority, right?  Are the House Republicans stupid enough insist on the RIF and refuse to even hold a vote on healthcare when there's a 0% chance of it passing?

Not in Texas.

Texas is an open primary state. Registration isn’t a thing. You just can’t vote in both primaries. So most of these ex Republicans on here (in this forum, I mean) have been “Democrats” since they participated in Rush Limbaugh’s “Operation Chaos” and voted/caucused for Hillary Clinton in the 2008 primary. 
Our precinct caucus in HaysCo was Hilarious. I was an Obama precinct captain and everyone caucusing for Obama was like a regular Democrat.  The people caucusing for Clinton were like 1/3 regular Democrats, 1/3 well known Republicans and 1/3 ringers from out of state the Clinton campaign had bussed in and demanding to be recognized before they were physically ejected. 

This is what I'm seeing:

How can I change my party affiliation?


After affiliating with a party by voting in a party’s primary or by taking an oath of affiliation with a party, a voter cannot change their party affiliation during the calendar year. (§162.010) However, affiliation will automatically expire at the end of the calendar year.

I would not want to be stuck with that affiliation for a whole calendar year.

When Ana thinks you've done the right thing . . . hoo boy.

Ending the shutdown is the right thing. The fact that the democrats did it in the most politically degrading way possible is just fun theatre.

It sounds worse than it is.

Allowing that group of worms to count you among their registered members is enough of a reason to avoid it.

Even worse, heaven forbid you make one fucking donation to a democrat and you show up on the public record rolls and they sell your info and you start getting text messages from Gavin fn Newsome.

If you vote in the Dem primary you get automatically registered as a Democrat. So, unless you have an incredibly strong reason for doing so, I would abstain from voting in the Democratic primary.

What? The way we fix this is through primary elections. I like most of your takes but this is just stupid.

Want to stop those annoying Allred texts? Beat his ass in the primary.

That's dumb.  A Mitch McConnell special. Too bad Biden admin never delivered on the descheduling. Cause you ain't getting another crack at that one under this admin.

The deal was agreed to by Senate Appropriations Committee Chair Susan Collins (R-ME) and Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA), the ranking minority member on the panel, as well as House Appropriations Committee Chair Tom Cole (R-OK). But Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-CT), the top Democrat on the House panel, did not sign off.

In a state like Texas? If you want to beat republicans you cannot run as anything besides an Independent.

So the whole purpose politically is to get a vote where the republicans vote against the subsidies for ACA publicly and then the Dems get to blame them for the rising premiums Americans are about to see.   

Narrator: there will be no vote.

You earned this headline, Dems.

One critical Democratic convert, Senator Tim Kaine of Virginia, said on Sunday evening that he was backing the deal after securing the provision in the temporary spending bill to reverse layoffs made during the shutdown and ensure furloughed workers would receive back pay.

Jacking up American's healthcare costs for what I'm assured is a titanium lock guarantee these constituents won't be let go at a later less headline-grabbing time. You stick it to 'em, Tim!

I'd choke his ass out in a heartbeat if I could get away with it. Sadly I'm not that smart.
