​Sadly, people mistake constancy for virtue, not realizing that the parties
believe whatever is convenient at the time.  Unelected members of the
parties, the voters, are far more moral than the ones they elect, on
average.  Just a tiny look at the history of politics in the USA and the
parties shows that they are just demagogues.  The elected officials know
this very well and will jump to another party if that's the way the wind
blows.  Here in Mississippi people will vote for a Baptist above anyone
else and are surprised one more time when they turn out to be as corrupt as
anyone else.​
