It's more a matter of principle for me. I don't like either of our two main parties. If I could, I would maybe register Green party, but Ohio only recognizes Dems or Republicans. (Incidentally, the past couple years I've seen a lot of effort from the Green and Libertarians to become recognized).
Ultimately, I am against the 2 party system. I debated about declaring myself Democrat to vote in the primary (because I really, really like John Edwards). But I decided that is just feeding into a system I disagree with.
My parents used to each register separately so they could vote in both primaries and then just vote whatever they wanted anyways.
