I think all the old rules have been broken with the current administration. We have a social conservative and a fiscal disaster in office right now. Our governer is more liberal than many Democrats, so I vote for fiscal conservatives that are socially liberal, mainly a Libertarian point of view. The Republicans are for larger government and so are the Democrats. The basic difference is the R’s borrow and spend and the D’s tax and spend. I would say tax and spend is better, at least we are spending cash and not making our grandchildren pay for our follies. By the way my household income is around 200k and and I paid cash for my modest condo and drive a 2000 Toyota, so I know I am not typical when it comes to the American way of life. We have zero debt… But we also only have to work part-time 9 months of the year and the rest of the time we over at the beach in the south of France.
