I'm just going to point out that OO spent several posts trying to say it's the Dems who are too knee jerk and partisan, and then you immediately posted this...

Funny I have noted that OO and #'s have previously noted that there are several Ds that they have voted for / would vote for.

Pelosi happens to be one on his NFW list, as she is on mine.

I do think too many D's vote straight ticket democrat without a thought to doing anything else. Certainly there are R's the same way, but in much lower numbers. I think if we sequestered American voters like a jury for a year or two - no TV, no papers, no news - 35% of them would still vote straight ticket Democrat, without any good reason at all. They would vote that way if Jesus was the Republican candidate with Confusius as his running mate. They would vote that way if the Devil was the Dem candidate, with Attilla his running mate. Completely mindless.

I have heard Pelosi talk, so she is one that I could not vote for. Hillary was/is another. It was disappointing when to me when Trump was nominated, as I thought it meant we would have to suffer through Hillary. Thank goodness enough Americans did not share my fatalism.

Generally speaking, the Dems I could consider are the most moderate, the kind that a half century ago were called conservative Democrats and are now called DINOs. A dying breed, and the party treats them like lepers, so I think it safe to assume I will never again(!) vote for a Democrat for President. Where have the Blue Dogs gone?
