This statement is fundamentally in error. There are a significant group of independents who are not politically astute enough to consider themselves either Democrat or Republican. They just don't care so are uninformed and uneducated.
Sure there are some disgruntled Republicans who consider themselves independents just as there are some conservative leaning Democrats that are disgruntled with the Democrat party and so consider themselves independents.
That doesn't do away with who makes up the vast majority of independents and those are the ones I described as sticking their finger up in the air each election to see which way the wind is blowing and then base their vote on that or how they are "feeling" about a particular candidate.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
