Wow... I used ‘their’ twice. Oops.

Anyway, I think there are a much higher percentage of good ‘democrats’ and bad ‘republicans’ in our nation than we would like to admit.

It’s not the ‘parties’ that are the problem, it’s the people.

The percentage of good people among democratic office holders is, I am sure, very low. That said, this Democratic Senator looks spot on upon the issue.

I think, however, you may be referring to the common voter.

I would put the percentage of “good” Republican office holder at the federal level at under 10%. I suspect that the percentage at the state level varies from state to state.

As far as common Republican voters, I am sure that they are all sinners.

I'd say the parties are just as much to blame - they are playing us off against one another every two years, and making sure we stay distracted by various issues so that we don't watch what they are doing in the halls of Congress.

I've had Republicans for various campaigns coming to me for donations and getting upset when I tell them I'm now independent and only voting for actual conservatives. One of these days, I'm going to get around to releasing some of these calls and emails on social media.
