[what's up]

Running a candidate who ran on a platform of lower taxes, reforming entitlesments, religious freedom, picked a far right man for VP, is a successful businessman, will not cut the military, and is against Obamacare is "their own kind"?

He didn't actually run on the party platform.

Democrats who run as Republicans do not, as part of their nature, adhere to the customs, traditions, beliefs and language of the party.

The truth is that when a Republican runs on Democrat issues, the people will usually vote for a Democrat (in reality, the Democrats will turn out in even greater numbers to vote for their own Democrat, and not ours)
