Tomorrow the Democratic National Committee (DNC) will have to choose the direction of the Democratic Party, as well as its likely composition. It will be among the most important choices the DNC has ever had to make.
There has been powerful push from the hard-left of the Democratic Party, led by senator Bernie Sanders, to elect Keith Ellison chairman. If he is elected, I will quit the party after 60 years of loyal association and voting.
I will become an independent, continuing to vote for the best candidates, most of whom, I assume, will still be Democrats.
But I will not contribute to the DNC or support it as an institution. My loyalty to my country and my principles and my heritage exceeds any loyalty to my party. I will urge other like-minded people – centrist liberals – to follow my lead and quit the Democratic Party if Ellison is elected chairman. We will not be leaving the Democratic Party we have long supported. The Democratic Party will be leaving us!

Sorry, I couldn't find any mention of it in the popular liberal news media, other than the Nazi DailyKos, and I did not think that anyone reads that anyway. Interesting that the NYT or The Wash Post or others do not mention this.
