I agree that many of them are not "liars and dumb asses". Many of them are not that political. They are republicans out of habit without giving it much thought.

"the idea that only Dems are right is a delusion at best"

Sometimes we agree on something so in that sense "republicans are right sometimes." I have a harder time thinking of a policy on which we disagreed and on which republicans were right and Democrats were wrong.
