First, there's no such thing as a conservative democrat, period.

That's not true. My dad is a Conservative Democrat of the Truman mold.

My dad was also a “Truman” Conservative Democrat but like Zell Miller said, my party LEFT me I didn't leave the party and later in life became a Republican. (the capital “LEFT” was on purpose)

This may be but someone needs to point out to him that that Democrat party is GONE. My grandfather was a Democrat, too, but he was a highly moral man I do not believe if he were alive now, he would vote Democrat.

Truman was a conservative?

LOL. Was he conservative when he pushed for national health care and federal housing projects, expanded Social Security, took control of steel mills, and vetoed Taft-Hartley?
