[Thank You]
Thank you everyone who voted for me yesterday. Thanks to Cerb and Stanley for their aid in this months Congressional elections. I'd also like to congratulate Fidelorean for running a good campaign against me. He seems like an intelligent player and hopefully he'll stick around for next month.

[Goodbye USWP]
This is the hard part. I've been a member of this party, specifically its leadership, for well over 2 years (most of my eLife). With the election of Elmie Jr, however, the party has taken a severe turn for the worse. Elmie is a tyrant and a narcissist. He has no understanding of what it takes to lead a successful party and had it not been for Cerb's work with SGT Rock in PAC last night, I think the USWP would have had a far worse showing than it did.

If ever there was a blatant attempt at a destructive PTO of a party, it is Elmie. He hired a competent and capable Chief of Staff in Stanley Ibcus and then fired him for a minor miscommunication which did not result in any harm to the party, just Elmie's belief that Ibcus does not trust him. Instead of working with honest, intelligent and confident players, Elmie chooses to allow his department directors to work with, and hire known multi's.

This party is taking a turn for the worse and if I had more time to help it, I'd likely stay, but it seems as if the only people Elmie will listen to as PP are his friends. Between his over-reactions, his inexperience, and the refusal of the rest of the party to do anything about it, I am forced to abandon the USWP.

For now I'm joining the USDP but only because I don't trust the American War Party since it's an obvious front for certain politicians running it behind the scenes. Edit: To clarify this, let me say that I love Colin. He's always been awesome, but he's not exactly the Party President everyone thinks he is. Someone else is essentially running the show for him. A few people could probably guess who, but I refuse to violate the trust of the EB and will not screen capture anything for evidence which was discussed there.

Maybe if the party were to elect a competent, or a real leader of any kind, I would consider coming back. But I'm pretty sure this will end up being my last month as a Congressman because you can be assured they won't let me in next month.
