Death of the GOP in a Nutshell

Carlo Key
This is a campaign ad for Republican judge Carlo Key of Texas, who has just switched parties, leaving the Republicans because:

"I cannot tolerate a political party that demeans Texans based on their sexual orientation, the color of their skin or their economic status. ... For too long, the Republican party has been at war with itself. Rational Republican beliefs have given way to ideological character assassination. Pragmatism and principle have been overtaken by pettiness and bigotry. ... I cannot place my name on the ballot of the political party that is proud to destroy the lives of hundreds of thousands of federal workers over the vain attempt to repeal a law that would provide health care for millions of people throughout our country."
