The basic difference is that Republicans follow a conservative philosophy and Democrats follow a liberal philosophy. Each side holds different values.
One is pro life, the other is pro choice. One is pro enviroment, the other wants to "drill baby drill". One wants to tax more and pay off the debt, the other wants to lower taxes and give tax incentives to big oil companies and those that outsource. One wants to end the war immediately, the other wants to stay until all objectives are completed.
I'm looking forward to the day when politicians are more independant. When they can focus on the issues rather than on the basis of a political ideology or partisanship. But that will probably never happen...
