    Your political party affiliation is another piece of the puzzle which reveals whether or not your principles are more or less compatible with mine. Your political ads are frequently meaningless sound bites. Whether you lean to the left or right is important to my vote. I will not vote for any candidate who is not willing to proudly declare a party affiliation.
