"(In fact, I believe most polls underestimate Republican ID because of nominal Democrats who routinely vote Republican.)"

Describes my father-in-law, who at 75 has always been a registered democrat, but only once has a democrat received his vote.
When questioned "why" he's still a democrat...."I have hope for the party. "

Well, I'm not anywhere near 75, but my sons can say exactly the same about me... except for the final answer.

For me, it was noticing about 30 years back, that it makes no difference whatsoever.
I have come to hate the concept of "party".

If tribal "belonging" were important to me, I would move to Rwanda.

Give me candidates that think. Who can identify what doesn't work and change it. Who won't think as far as the next election.
