Why I'm not a Democrat

I switched party affiliation several years ago from Democrat to Green because I saw the writing on the wall — Democrats were becoming more and more like Republicans. I don't agree with everything in the Green platform, but they're much closer to my own views than the Democrats are.

With the recent election, I was happy to see that the Democrats had taken Congress, but after reading "The Kids Are All Right" by John Cook in Radar, I'm not so sure that anything has changed. As the article states:

They're pro-life, pro-gun, pro-Jesus—meet the new class of Democrats
