The Republicans will hate me for X heresy and the Democrats will hate me for Y heresy and nothing beyond wasted air and time would come out of any involvement in the nitty gritty by me. So I simply support the candidates and organizations which to me will provide the greatest benefit or least harm overall. Politically independent thought has its price, and the inability to work in the party machinery effectively is a big part of it.
