Yes I am.
..then I don't understand why you support the Democrats. The Democrats, at least the leftists that have taken over the party, are trying to kill all vestiges of Christianity. It's not even being done incrementally or covertly anymore, it's a full-blown assault.
So is this to say the question was really are you a "Born Again Christian"? If he was an orthodox Jew or a Muslim for that matter, do you still consider him a man of faith? Just curious.

Getting back to the original post, I don't think democratic wins on Tuesday mean all that much. I do agree though that the Republican Congress need to get on the stick. Perhaps they should start by dusting off 1994's "Contract with America," because they are way off course and many are breaking the promises they made.

That's a key right there. You don't necessarily quit the party because you're unhappy with its leadership. You try to change the leadership, or influence its thinking (or at least contribute to those who are). Why is Orrin Hatch still a Republican if he's pro choice?

I am pretty sure that both Colon Powell and Condleeza Rice are also Pro-Choice. We (the Republican Party) don't toss party members for being different.

Neither could win a POTUS nomination either.

Well, I wasn't asking why he hasn't been kicked out. I was asking why he hasn't left (it was rhetorical). RebelKev wanted to know why mump hadn't left the Democrats because he (Kev) perceives their leadership to be "trying to kill all vestiges of Christianity." My point is that you don't necessarily bail on the party simply because you disagree with the leadership. A more vivid example: Why are there Log Cabin Republicans?
