re: Next week I will do something I've never done before: Vote a straight Republican ticket

I will vote up and down Republican for the first time in my life as well...as will my father and two sisters, all for the first time in our lives. I come from a long line of Blue Dog Democrats, but that all started changing with the rhetoric and chaos of Barack Obama's 2nd term. Since then, the Democratic party has gone through an insane and dramatic shift to the left...a shift there is absolutely no coming back from! We were firmly MAGA in 16' and even more firmly MAGA in 20'....and so is almost everybody i know!
