The same song is not producing the same dance two generations later. I can appreciate that there is a part of our society that deeply feels that a vote for Republicans is a vote for Righteousness. Earlier in my life I may have fallen into that catgory, but I've been trying to say that that tactic is no longer finding the success that it used to have because the lack of firm results and specific promises speaks louder.
Tstew I have to disagree with you here. No one is saying vote Republican to be voting "right". What we are saying whether voting for a Republican or Democrat if either candidate openly supports what is an obomination to God, such as abortions and gay rights, then a Christian can not knowingly do that.

If the canidate of either party states they are against those things and then does not act on it, you are not responsible, IMO. But you are responsible if you knowingly vote for a supporter of obomination. Period. Dress it up any way you want but it is wrong! If you put ecomnics ahead of obominations then IMO you can't call yourself a Christian. That is Not being Christ like to vote for obominations.
