To what I have bolded, there is no doubt about it. At the same time SOME dems would vote for the anti-christ if he said he was a democrat.

I remember the line on Gerald Ford when he was running for election against Carter. If you will remember, Carter announced he was a "born again" Christian. That prompted Ford supporters to come out with this statement "Gerald Ford is a quietly religious man who doesn't believe in wearing his religion on his sleeve". I always doubted that faith had much of a role in Ford's life but, from that day it's been the norm for candidates to declare themselves just to get the Christian vote, as Jimmy Carter won the election thanks in no small manner to the religious vote.

That doesn't mean it's not important to know what the candidates believe. For instance, I will never knowingly vote for a candidate that is Pro Choice. I believe if a voter casts his vote for a democrat (just because he/she is a democrat) in spite of the fact they are Pro Choice, that voter will bear a share of the responsibility for the deaths of the unborn, and the ramifications of any long lasting legislation that candidate helps to enact that adversely affect the lives of the unborn for as long as that legislation is in effect. The reason the dems generally don't get my support is they tend to be Pro Choice, support the gay agenda and they tend to view the constitution as a living document. They believe the basic tenets of the constitution should mutate along with the current social values of this nation and, they make and enforce, or don't enforce, laws in that light. When one considers the recent and ongoing events of the Occupy Wall Street movement it is easy to see why the notion of changing with the times is foolhardy. We have come full circle from the madness of the 60's when hippies redefined acceptable moral behavior across the spectrum of American life from free sex (like a heard of bison) to blowing up buildings ala Bill Ayers and the Weather Underground terrorists. And now we see the resurgence of the same kind of mindless actions in NY and places all across the land.

I want to make sure I'm voting for people who can be depended on to "stay the course" and govern with integrity, appoint judges of fiber and lean on the hard lessons of history. IMO letting the liberals drive the bus should only happen on short trips until they stop steering toward la-la land.

When people vote for Democrats for national office, they are voting in favor of abortion rights and every other item on the liberal agenda, regardless of what the individual candidate who gets their vote believes. The single most important vote that any US Senator or member of the House of Representatives casts is the one that determines which party controls the legislative agenda. I don't care if a Democratic candidate shares every one of my own beliefs, unless he can convince me that if elected, he will not vote to give control of Congress to Harry Reid or Nancy Pelosi (or other radical liberals), he has zero chance of getting my vote.
