Democrat vs Republican

In general, I have an opinion about both parties.  To bad there wasn't some odor or aura surrounding a person to clearly define his/her loyalty.  Pro's and Con's abound when it comes to making a choice.  The promises made during a campaign sometimes do not materialize after an election.  That will disappoint some and make others as "giddy as a school girl".  I know of others who very publically support a candidate.  These people are friends, family and JQ public.  I also remember a Rock Hard Republican [VB member] giving a riveting introduction for Die Hard Democrat D. Aubertine during a visit to our village.
These are just a few examples of thoughts that whirl around in my mind everytime there is a campaign.  The bottom line is this:  Public support or comments about candidates go out the window when the curtain closes at the voting booth.  When the vote is completed and the curtain opens, nobody ever really knows how that person voted.
