That's not true in many many cases. I lean towards the party of individual responsibility, tax cuts, strong military and gun rights over the party of higher taxes, hand outs, appeasement of our enemies, gun control and such...but I still voted for a Democrat in the last election. In the last election quite a few Republicans voted for Democrats.

My problems with Hillary do not have anything to do with her being a Democrat or being a woman. My problem with her goes all the way back to when Bill was first elected. Hillary is a politician by proxy. She held no office until Bill was elected. I remember the country electing him, but I do not remember her being elected. I believe she should have an opinion on things and Bill should consult her for ideas since she was his wife, but that is where the line is drawn. Hillary tried to get legislation passed, was personally involved with affairs of state and other things. That disturbed me then and disturbs me now. Luara Bush is probably more involved in things than is known but she is not in your face about it. I also think the things her and Bill did while in office will come back and bite her.....renting out rooms in the White House, destroying FBI files and such.
I also think any spouse who is sooooooooo dimwitted or blind to say they did not know their spouse was cheating when the rest of the known world did.......do you really want somebody who is A) that dumb B) that bad of a liar or C) thinks WE are that dumb as your president?

More Hillary stuff....
It is an honor to be a Marine stationed in the White House as a guard. Isn't it? Well, if you are in the White House when Hillary Clinton is there, perhaps not.
This true story comes from a woman who is very proud of her Marine nephew. I am sure you have heard the stories from Gary Aldrich about how ranking officers were used to serve food in the White House. This particular young Marine, proud to serve his country, was on duty near Ms. Clinton, the first evil lady at the time. It seems that her coffee cup was nearly empty and she had the audacity to tell the guard to go get her more coffee. His proper response with both dignity and respect was, "Ma'am, I'm not allowed to leave my post, ma'am." But Hillary wouldn't quit. She ordered him again and he gave the same response. So what did the first evil lady do? SHE THREW THE REMAINING COFFEE FROM HER CUP IN HIS FACE!!!

Another....Here's the scripted stuff...

It seems that Hillary, who's had her fingerprints found on all the new scandals that are breaking on a daily basis is trying to fix her public image.
So, to promote the new effort, showing how deeply Hillary cares about children, especially sick children in hospitals, Georgetown University Medical Center in Washington got a call. Hillary Clinton would be coming over soon with children's author Maurice Sendak. Hillary's advance team would be showing up arranging the security and logistics. The team did show up. What they saw horrified them.
The kids in the hospital children's ward really looked sick! Some of them had tubes sticking out. Some had lost their hair to chemotherapy. Some were groggy because of the pain killers they had to take.
Hospital officials were quickly told this would not do. Hillary would look bad in a newspaper photo if she posed with sickly looking children. They were told. "No children that look drowsy, skip bald kids, sick looking kids, or kids with tubes sticking out."
So here's what the hospital actually did. They outfitted a hospital conference room with toys and kids decorations. They ordered hospital staff members to bring in their healthy children who would pose as sick children in photos with the great St. Hillary.
So, on January 10th, Hillary Clinton showed up to Georgetown University Medical Center and read to a bunch of kids with author Maurice Sendak. Had you read the papers or heard the news the next day, you might have been bowled over by her compassion. Actually she demonstrated the opposite. You see the real sick kids, who were originally told they would be visited by the first lady were originally extremely happy and excited at the prospect of her visit.
When they were later told, they were too sick looking to be with the great Hillary, some became deeply depressed. After all how would anyone feel not being good enough for Ms. compassion herself.
Of course the press published the photos of Hillary reading to the cute kids the next day. They just forgot to tell you that Hillary, in the quest of the perfect photo could not bring herself to be photographed with an actual sick child.
The phony mask of compassion that Hillary hides behind has slipped once again. Just around Purim time too!

Hillary as the Democrat-ICK nominee would be wonderful.

But did Republicans vote for the Democrat because they were in support of the candidate and his/her views? NO, they voted that way because they were pi$$ed at their own party; sending a message; didn't vote for Democrats, voted AGAINST Republicans! All I'm saying is in the end, MOST people, in my opinion, are going to vote for the person (party) who represents their long standing view on tough issues. Independents get screwed simply because they usually don't have a candidate and end up having to either vote republican, democratic, or simply choose not to vote at all!
