just saying "im republican" or "im democrat" only means that you are blindly picking Joe Schmo ONLY because of his party affiliation.

That's not what it means, at all. I don't blindly pick.
I'm a die-hard conservative. Therefore, no Democrat ever aligns with my views. Many (but not all) Republicans DO align with many of my views.
There's two issues that dictate for whom I vote for and that's abortion and same
sex marriage. Once I know a person's stance on those two issues, it tells me, personally, which way *I* am going to vote. And, again, no democrat has ever aligned with me on those positions. Republicans have. Therefore, I am a Republican.
Warmly,
