The “End” of GayPatriot

October 3, 2013 by GayPatriot

No, no, no… calm down!  Our blog isn’t going anywhere!

I decided to move forward with my online and social media “brand” and ditch the “GayPatriot” moniker today.  Dan ditched “GayPatriotWest” a few years ago and I didn’t understand why.  I thought our names were cool and provided an instant recognition of who we were.  But, as usual, Dan was right so I’m following suit today.

Since December 2011, I’ve been striking out on my own as a political, media, grassroots consultant.  Leaving the clutches of Corporate America has been quite liberating and I’ve enjoyed the projects I’ve worked on to date.  I also made a conscious effort to push the “GayPatriot” brand for myself online, especially Twitter.

Well, I think the time is right to promote and grow who I am as a person and a professional — not hide behind a cute and fun nickname.  I’m engaged in a wide variety of endeavors now with the Match Game show, “The Wrap” podcast, and of course professional projects.  Time to grow up!

So from now on – you can find me on Twitter @BruceCarrollSC

PS – NO, I’m not running for office.  Just changing things up a bit!

    Running for office isn’t in your future – how about helping someone else replace Grahmnesty?

    I’m so happy toreador that you will still be on Twitter. I was kinda freaking out that you were signing off!

    So you’re coming out again, eh? 🙂

    Tried going by Rob once and I got an email from I forget who telling me that it probably wasn’t a good idea. Now it’s pretty much all I go with.
    Missed the part where Dan dropped GPW.

    Glad you’re enjoying working for yourself. I made the move a year-and-a-half ago, and won’t look back. Self-employment is one of the scariest (no safety net) and exhilarating things a person can do. I still get the occasional offers from headhunters, and I’m working harder than I ever have, but it’s so much fun. Best of luck.
