ok...
i'm a registered republican. i chose the republican party because i believe in the principles they run on (though not necessarily keep) like limited government, relatively pro-life, hawkish foreign policy and free-market economical philosophy.
the republicans don't hold a monopoly on these issues, there are some dems and independents who i identify with more than some republicans. still, as a party... i feel they are the better choice for the things i value between the two.
if you're a conservative like i am, you might want to read up on the libertarian party. if they get their act together and form a cogent platform with a solid candidate... i'll be the first to change.
