Yes, I know a political section would help and maybe it will come back now that someone is gone, but just asking the honest question.

Telling me Republicans are scum is not a good answer, as I think they are mostly scum of the earth liars.

What are the positives you see in being a Democrat?

I ask this as I see Jamie D (CEO of Chase) testifying to congress about how he lost $2 Bill, while wearing his presidential cufflinks (you can't just buy those on ebay....Pawn stars maybe) and while many would associate Romney and Republicans with Wall Street/Banks etc, the banking money is flowing for O'Bama.

Not a registered Democrat, but I usually lean that way.

Don't have a good answer...parents are very much Dems and I guess some of that rubbed off...though I can't help but roll my eyes when they start yelling at the tv watching MSNBC.

I'm not committed either way. I agree with some things on both sides, that the other side doesn't.

Each race comes down to the individual for me. I don't understand how anyone can just vote a straight ticket. Moooooooo!!

I'm a registered Democrat, probably because I didn't know there was an alternative. Especially in the 11th Ward.

But I'll vote either way depending on a candidate's position.

More often than not I've voted for Republicans recently.

I'm not sure it has for awhile now. Bush was as wreck less a spender as could be. But yeah I agree.
