You're question isn't about "party" as much as it's about "individual."

I agree I am the same way, while I usually take a stance in the Republican threads, I am hardly a "conservative". There are many things I am liberal about and many things I am conservative about. I am not a bible thumper, I am pro-choice, but when it comes to crime and taxes I am conservative.
It depends on the issue, and no one side is perfect, all we need to do is show our strength in the polls and vote for what is right and get some of these guys out of office, after all we put them there in a direct or indirect way. If you vote for the person you put them there, if you don't vote at all, you are responsible for their being elected as well.
To me I think this is just a witch hunt, but thats just my 2 cents.
