No, this ain’t your father’s Democratic Party. In fact, as the DNC goes godless, I suspect quite a few God-fearing Democrats are contemplating a break with tradition.

Don't count on it. You still have a lot of the "I was born a Democrat; I'll die a Democrat." remnant. They have justified, in their pea brains, why it is alright to vote for a party and persons who support abortion and same-sex marriage.

Yep,you are talking about my in-laws. Two of the most sanctimonious, holier-than-thou people you will meet. But they will crawl over broken glass to vote for obama. I know one thing, they have completely lost their Christian witness as far as I am concerned.

I had a landlord like that; an FDR, depression-era Democrat who has so much pride in the label that he'd rather cut off his right arm rather than deny it. It's sad, because he had to exercise the most breathtaking cognitive dissonance when I talked to him about the facts - even denying that Slick Willie ever had sex with Monica; the Republicans made it all up.

For many of these, it is just that the alternative is so much worse to their thinking, their utterly unfounded brainwashing that the GOP is only for the "rich" and want to squash the poor. They are not so much for abortion and same-sex "marriage," they just pretend, in their cognitive dissonance, that these issues aren't even there at all.
