If winning is your sole criteria, you must support the Democrats about 50% of the time?

Not lately, bub.

I really don't get the whole "party over principle" thing that afflicts so many folks around here.

I'm not the least bit surprised you don't understand why people support a party.

But I do notice that you have to say that people support the party over PRINCIPLE, like the rest of us don't have principles.

We all have principles; maybe they're just not yours?

Everybody has principles, but some abandon them more easily than others. And for some, the support of a party, regardless of what that party has done, is in itself a principle. To each their own, I guess.
