Rocky a (Dem) party pooper -- still
If you needed more proof that Rocky Anderson has little loyalty to the Utah Democratic Party -- besides his endorsement of a Republican for Salt Lake City mayor, of course -- look no further than comments he made Thursday on KCPW.
One gem: He said Democratic Rep. Jim Matheson "votes like a right-wing Republican," referring to the congressman's support of the Iraq war and tax cuts.
Maybe the Democratic mayor feels scorned. Even though Anderson represented the party in his failed 1996 congressional race against Merrill Cook, he found little party support. And, last year, the leader of Salt Lake County's Democratic Party agreed with her Republican counterpart that Anderson's goodwill trip to Italy should be investigated by the district attorney. Back then Anderson said: "Democrats have a long history of screwing up just about everything they touch."
On Thursday, Anderson added: "This party has never supported me."
It certainly isn't supporting his choice for successor. Anderson endorsed Keith Christensen, a registered Republican, in the nonpartisan mayoral chase.

Probably because Rocky was never a Democrat to begin with.... he's a Marxist. Don't believe me? Take a look into his background in college... he was a member and actively involved in pro-Marxist activities.
