How is begrudgingly voting for someone dignified? And not knowing Mr. Jealous personally, I don't feel I owe him any sort of loyalty. I haven't decided yet who to vote for, but this kind of nonsense is how Roy Moore almost got elected in Alabama. People there were so loyal to the damn (R) they were willing to vote in a pedophile over a Democrat. I'll make an informed choice based on the issues, thank you, and I will not blindly vote for anyone based on a letter appearing after their name. If more people bothered to do their homework and think for themselves, we might not be in the mess we're currently in.
People like you are why the party is in trouble. Because you have no loyalty. You have no honor. All you think of is your own selfish interests - probably taxes, right? You're afraid you're taxes might go up one scintilla, so you abandon the candidate that's got the integrity to tell you the truth. It's either that, or you have a problem voting for a AA for governor. Both are shameful. Greedy, or racist? Pick one.
Lol. You sound unhinged. You really need to take a step back and learn to think for yourself. Herd mentality is not a good thing.
NP here - herd mentality *does* have its place in certain national elections, when control of the House or Senate can have significant consequences re legislation that is brought to the table, or the ability to conduct proper oversight (as a random example). I agree with the PP that this kind of blind loyalty is often counterproductive when it comes to state and local races.

Do you feel that way regarding loyalty to party for Republicans? Would you say a moderate Republican disgusted by Trump (or some other Republicans who have moved far right) should nonetheless support him/them out of loyalty to the party? If not, why is it different than a moderate Democrat uncomfortable with someone who is so far left?

This.
I also don’t need Ike Leggett to endorse Ben Jealous for me to vote for Jealous over Hogan.
