7. I've never liked the republican party. . .

But it's gotten so much worse than it even was under that senile buffoon, Ronald Reagan. I honestly cannot fathom how any sensible person could vote for ANY republican today. My parents are big progressive dems but live in an extremely red state. When I go down there, I'm always astonished by how many seemingly "sane" people vote for these clowns. I honestly don't get it.

Given the positive swing towards Obama among independents comes as no surprise, but I'm just puzzled why MORE people aren't coming out against the travesty that these crazies are proposing-- anti-women, anti-choice, homophobia, demonization of the poor, blatant racism, etc.
