So I am a Dem who voted for one Repub, 

based upon what seemed to me a serious commitment to serving all in our district, regardless of party. 

Just sharing.  

(Still unsure if that was a good idea. May contradict my national politics.)

Wasn't really speaking to anyone here specifically, as I think you know.

It was of course a generalized statement based upon the exit polls.  Having grown up in a highly political family, meaning my dad or grandfather were constantly running for office and politic'n for the next election started the day after winning an election, I saw a huge amount of people who had no interest in issues or what the candidate represented.  All they wanted to know was their party, period.  This was especially true during the months leading up to an election when we would go door to door every weekend.  I hated waking people at 8am on a Saturday....

Anyway, my general point was that things haven't changed.  If you look at the exit polls, they are really disturbing as to the blind ignorance on both sides of the fence.  Disturbing, but unsurprised because ignorance is easier than learning.
