In all honesty, it's really out of disgust for the Republican Party more so than anything. The pandering to religious conservatives, fiscal irresponsibility, creeping authoritarianism, belligerent foreign policy, and general mean-spiritedness of much of the GOP just completely scares me away from them. I might vote for them in local (or gubernational) elections, but that's as far as it goes.
With that said, I take issue with a lot of Liberal Democrats on issues like Business Regulation, Trade, Guns, and Crime & Punishment. So I pretty much fall under the New Democrat wing of the Party, even if I am more socially libertarian than many of them.
