C, With rare exception, I agree. But, for "politics" to survive, differences must be "highlighted". And, as you say, for "conservatives" to go along with the treasonous policies makes a vote for a "real democrat" more likely. Awhile back, the Bush administration was pushing for the "amnesty" for illegal aliens. Might as well vote for another Clinton. Buchanan was right. That's why leadership in BOTH{?} parties demonized him. Peace and love, George.
