After being a Democratic member of the House of Representatives for less than one year, Parker Griffith has decided to become a Republican. According to Politico.com, Griffith voted against everything the Democrats have tried to accomplish including the stimulus package, health care legislation, the cap-and trade energy bill and financial regulatory reform. So what the hell good is he anyway.
GOP leadership is thrilled — but not all Republicans are feeling the love. RedState founder Erick Erickson is already targeting Griffith:
That is a huge blow to Barack Obama. Griffith was an extremely endangered Democrat.
We should now hope him [sic] be an extremely endangered Republican in a primary. We will not fix the GOP’s problems if we keep allowing people who are not one of us to suddenly switch the letter next to their name and magically become one of us.
I guess the real question is: will he pull a Palin and quit all together before his term is up?
