Does anyone know if Armstrong is a Republican?

Doubts are in order whether Lance is a Republican or not. For one, he's dating Cheryl Crow, which should be 'nuff said. I read on another post that Lance whined about the war possibly interferring with his cycling. Don't know if it's true or not and wish someone would post something conservative Lance said or did so that it would make his victory even more special.

Lance on the War in Iraq:

"...In my opinion it's not really the place of an athlete to take a position here. And I do think there should be a strong delineation from sports, war, diplomacy, and politics. I am getting asked this question repeatedly over here because a) I'm an American like the President, b) I'm a Texan like the President, and c) I am a friend of the President's. The war seems to be very unpopular here (lots and lots of protests) and it's normal that the press tries to get a quote regarding this. "What I will say, and have said many times, is that NOBODY wants a war. Not me. Not President Bush. Not Tony Blair. No one... but sometimes it may be unavoidable. I absolutely support the President and absolutely support our troops."
