I'm thinking we have some died in the wool Ds, and that might explain, in part, the Obama pimping.

I'm a reformed R, who now is a electoral non-participant.
And, labels are now meaningless, IMO. Even "pro-life" is a twisted joke.
I thought this way for a while, but I've returned to my belief that there is a political left and right. They aren't as crisply defined, but there is a difference.
Modern conservatism is the wealthiest and most elite 2% manipulating small town America with a billion dollar propaganda engine.
Using buzz words such as "pro-life", "gay marriage", "Islamofascism" and "commies" gets small town America riled up into an easily manipulated state. The goal is to manipulate this large group into voting tax cuts for the plutocratic two percent, and not to actually act on such things as abortion or gay marriage - which the 2% actually like having as an option.
Hence, all the talk - for decades - and no action at all.
