Good question, and I’d lean Democrat. The GOP has shown nothing to deal with the mess of things. Cutting taxes by itself as a be-all and end-all isn’t a solution. Cutting government by itself isn’t a solution either.

Solutions are far more nuanced than a simple tax/spend or cut taxes/smaller government mantra allows - and fact is that most people understand this, even if their electoral preferences don’t always show it. Most recent polls show that the public is open to a combination of higher taxes on “rich” with spending cuts to get the budgetary situation under control.

And it wouldn’t be the first time I’d be accused of being a RINO, even though I was a DINO for a long time (and I’m really more conservative on fiscal issues than most Democrats, and more liberal than Republicans would ever admit on social stuff).

Stuck in the middle with you in more ways than you know actually.
