I see you don't take exception at all to the idea you consider yourself a member of the Democrat party.
If it's important to you, then obviously I don't. I thought that went without saying.
I'm not a member of any party (UK or elsewhere), I've never found one I'm sufficiently aligned with.

I've campaigned and voted for all three major parties here, at different times in my life, plus voted for a couple of minor ones (Green and an Independent). I think I've only once voted for the candidate who actually won the seat, and on that occasion his party still lost the general election...
I really haven't decided who I'll vote for in our next general election. Labour don't deserve another vote for multiple reasons, I'm not convinced of the Conservatives' competence or principle, and I disagree with too many policies to vote Lib Dem.

I see a lot to like and admire in Obama, and a lot to mistrust, dislike and fear in a continuation of the present Republican rule (feelings greatly strengthened by the electoral campaign).
Doesn't it say something to you that Bush's own party are trying to omit him - two-term incumbent President - from their campaign, to the point where some Republicans are actively trying to link themselves to Obama?
