If Arnold was running as a democrat would half of all freepers still be supporting him? On the issues Arnold is a democrat!

Some people who call themselves republicans would vote for Hillary Clinton if she changed parties and nothing else!

To happily pull the voting lever for a baby-killer / gay-rights activist / tax-raising / big government leftist just because he calls himself a "Republican" is wrong. To me that is immoral. To each his own.

The problem is that the labels are all meaningless. The Democrat party has been taken over by the socialists and is no longer a comfortable home for the liberals. The liberals have moved over to the Republican party under the Neo-con label and the social conservatives who have been the mainstay of the Republicans for quite a while are being squeezed and pressured to shut up.

The wisest thing for the social conservatives to do would be to talk with the neo-con candidates and try to work out some kind of compromise on agenda. The neo-cons don't want to drive away the conservatives because they need their votes, and the social conservatives need the cross-over appeal of the neo-cons in heavily leftist territory. (I really like the cons part of that label, its so apropos)

I see your point but I think you went a bit too far. The pope and Billy Graham could both tell me that Hillary is the Messiah and even if she could walk on water, I wouldnt vote for her, Republican or not.
