We can't judge from a closed election. Also, indications of massive voter fraud are appearing in Dem strongholds.

Watch my face turn red at the prospect of a liberal vs liberal general election. Trump and Clinton are liberals.

Who is your guy? Cruz? Life Time govt employee Cruz. Some conservative.

...and Nancy Reagan made red her signature fashion color, so according to your logic she was a commie.

Ain’t no such thing as a Blue Democrat. Certainly not in the modern era.

You never heard of the “Blue Dog” Democrats?

Yes. But it’s a ridiculous term to be sure. For starters, there are no “Conservatives” left in federal office as Democrats (the most “Conservative” member would be a left-wing RINO). This group was also founded in 1995, before the Orwellian newspeak color switcheroo in 2000, which also compounds confusion for those unaware (since “Blue” is recast as leftist, that makes it sound like these are the left of the left).

In Canada, the far-left in the Conservative Party are called “Red Tories.” I have no problem labeling “Red RINOs” for the similarly far-left or “Blue Democrats” if there were any actual Conservatives, but as long as said parties are more left as opposed to right, calling them by opposite colors remains offensive, especially when one (Reds) is explicitly associated with leftist totalitarianism and terror, whereas that is the polar opposite of what the GOP is supposed to stand for.

In the current U.S. Senate, using the American Conservative Union’s tracking of votes on issues of greatest concern to conservatives, Bill Nelson (D-Fl) votes conservative 30% of the time, Democrat Joe Donnelly of Indiana votes conservative 29% of the time and Joe Manchin (D-WV) votes conservative 27% of the time.

The least conservative Republicans are Susan Collins of Maine who votes conservative only 47% of the time, Mark Kirk (R-Il), 57% conservative and Alaska’s Lisa Murkowski who votes conservative 67% of the time.

In the House, while the vast majority of Democrats are in single digits or vote conservative zero percent of the time there are a few like Colin Peterson of Minnesota with a 33% conservative rating, Jim Cooper of Tennessee at 21% conservative and Brad Ashford of Nebraska at 17%.

In the House there are a bunch of Republicans who vote conservative at a lower rate than many Democrats.
The worst of the worst are Bob Dold (R-IL) who votes conservative only 13% of the time and there are about five Republicans who vote conservative 33% of the time, including Curbelo of Florida, Bost of Illinois, Lobiondo of New Jersey and Dent of Pennsylvania.
There are about 20 Republicans who were below a 50% conservative voting record in 2015.

Cooper is my Congressman. He is not well regarded here by either side. He claims to be a fiscal Conservative but didn’t hesitate to vote for the Porkulus Trillion dollar monster early in Zero’s regime.
