How can most people that are, remain Democrats?

I just don’t get the rationale.

I hear ya. I feel the same way.

Try this one on for size. How can a majority of Catholic voters, who belong to a church that officially teaches that abortion is a mortal sin that will condemn one to Hell, vote for Democrats year after year after bloody year?

It was mainly Catholic voters who kept sending Teddy the Swimmer back to the U.S. Senate for 3+ decades.

I used to be a Democrat. Eventually, I figured out that I wasn't. It was something I got into in college in the 70's. Eventually, I was espousing ideas that were counter to the 'rats - anti-abortion, pro gun rights, pro capital punishment, etc. A co-worker asked me why I continued to vote 'rat when I was obviously a Republican. My last 'rat vote was for B.J. Clinton in '92. Must have been something about the Clinton Crime Family that helped me see the light. By '94, I was an enthusiastic Republican.

I can't imagine defending the crap today's rats are into.

“I just don’t get the rationale.”

It’s going to come down to whether Catholics are bound by their politics or the Church.
