Monday night, the former congressman who put president Barack Obama's name into nomination in 2008 spoke at the Arkansas Republican Party headquarters.

Artur Davis told Republicans why he no longer supports Obama or the Democratic Party and why he things Republican will win statewide this November.

"It's a party that's become an exclusively liberal political organization," says Davis.

Monday night, Davis also voiced his support of school vouchers and government oversight.

Of his party switching earlier this year Davis said, "I did what I thought was right. Predictably, many Republicans have embraced me. Many Democrats are not eager to embrace me, shall we say. That's life in the big city."

I heard this man on AFR radio with Sandy Rios talk about his wonderful conversion to be a Republican. I believed him. Anyone can make a mistake, but it takes courage to go against a party that hates republicans and this republic. So I say "Welcome to the RIGHT"!

The Democratic party is very similiar to the Titanic. Steadily sinking and people are constantly jumping ship.

They were a "liberal political organization" 4 years ago! Did he have his head in the sand; or someplace else perhaps?

What's up? Obama is the same country-destroying radical he was four years ago. Many Americans recognized that then and tried to stop him. Why didn't this bird? It's a little late now to try and explain your support four years ago. The damage is done and we may be stuck with this person for another 4 years, God help us.
