I would guess it's for the same reason that I don't protest too much when someone says I'm a democrat - - it's not that I like the democrats or think they're worth a plug nickel, but they're a hell of a lot better than the republicans.
He probably doesn't like half of what the republicans say, especially the current breed of them, but he likes them better than the dems.
