The Republicans are running Windows and have to reboot about once every two weeks. The Dems are running Linux and haven't rebooted for over a year.

Yeah, they may not have rebooted for a year, but it would be interesting to run a ps -ef (if I remember correctly) to see what stuff is running that shouldn't be. Most servers I've worked with have instructions that advise periodic reboots. I've run servers, both Linux and Windows, for a long time without a reboot, but had performance degrade due to processes hanging up, and not shutting down properly.
