And many liberals act the same way. Welcome to sociology 101: people like to form groups to use as their identity

My feeling is that if you (the OP) have gone through the issues and compared the views of the candidates to your own and you have to ask the question, it means one of two things.

1) You already know the answer and are looking for confirmation or

2) You are just trolling for a forum to either attack the candidate or demean the candidate's supporters.
