Marshall Whitman, the Bullshit Moose, who is the Republican Party’s mole inside the DLC, has an opinion about Independence:

What is Nicco's great "sin" that has so inflamed the puerile keyboarders of the left? He has earned their scorn for signing on with the potential Presidential campaign of John McCain. Allow Nicco explain his move,

"After Sen. McCain lost the Republican primary in 2000, I traveled with him as part of a group of campaign finance reform staffers as we criss-crossed the country working to secure support for the McCain-Feingold bill. I have long admired Sen. McCain'’s work on campaign finance reform and his independent streak. If Sen. McCain runs for president, he'’s got my support."

One would think that Nicco's explanation would win the accolades of progressives who supposedly shared his desire to clean up the campaign finance system. But no, these so called liberal and open minded commissars are convening a nutroot inquisition for his alleged apostasy.

Apparently, Mr Whitman‘s opinion about Independence is that it’s only for Republicans, and not Democrats, Liberals, or Progressives.
