Democrat, all the way. Always have been liberal, always will be. As for the comment that voting straight ticket is "unAmerican", we're actually the starters of the whole idea
used to be that you could go into a polling place and one of the choices on the ballot was straight ticket. this, of course, was in the days of the political machines of the late 1800s, and was left over until recently. in many states you can still choose to vote straight ticket.
