I liked McCain as well, until he picked Palin. On that day I changed my party affiliation from R to I because I knew there was no room under the big tent for a person like me.

Why do you need a party affiliation? Why not just vote as you see fit at the time of voting (i know I'm the weird one but i still don't understand this after 40 years)

The biggest reason for most people is for closed primaries, which vary from state to state. During a closed primary or caucus, only voters registered with that party can take part and vote.
