I have not voted for a Democrat in decades, based on a promise I made to myself in 1998, which even then I chuckled at because I had not voted for one for a few years anyway. (I supported nothing but Democrats from 1966-1979, then slowly migrated 1980-1991. The town elections are not listed by party in March, but we know who's who from the November elections. I will be voting mostly for Democrats this time, a very quick switch. The Republicans are crazy, and are making Trump loyalty an either-or for town offices where that is irrelevant. Trump is being used as a proxy for All Good Things, and a word of criticism against him, even from other conservatives, is a proxy for All Bad Things. Enough.
The 1998 promise was when the Democrats in the US Senate refused to even cross the street to look at the Juannita Broderick and Paula Jones testimony and evidence. I vowed I would not vote for any who had any connection to that unless they apologised. Though I liked Joe Lieberman, he was among them.
