So Do We Invite Republicans To 'Come On Over'?
A note to readers and commenters: this post refers, links and quotes a number of Republican people. Unusual for this site but necessary to describe its point. Thank you.
Have you noticed on social media the talk that a lot of Republicans will actually vote for Hillary Clinton?
It's looking that way, and to those folks, I want to say, welcome. We in the Democratic Party are well aware that you have a choice between sane and insane, qualified and unqualified, rational and willfully ignorant.
Come on in.
We welcome you, and are happy to see that you are definitely Not A Trump Voter.
The polls all tell the same story. Dems gave GOP voters an opening to bail and they are taking it in large numbers.

That said, there are some conditions that Republicans for Hillary will have to meet if they want to continue to be appreciated here by Democratic voters.
1. You get nothing.
