I'm not a democrat (recovering republican, actually), but the suggestion that Democrats aren't real Americans is like saying that Republicans aren't real Americans. I'm sure Ms. Holden has her tongue firmly in cheek, but she may mislead the idiots who actually believe that stuff. Of any two people that I know, who might be on opposites sides of the (so-called) political spectrum: I'll find that they have far more in common than they do different..
