I'm going to get flamed, but Evan Mcmullin would have been a great Democrat for the West

I know he's probably bad on lot of issues, but I could see him occupying a red seat as a Democrat in Utah or some other red district in the interior West.

You take what you can get. They may never be a California democrat, but as long as they are against Trump I could work with it..

He is a Republican.

In Alabama I think we have some moderate Republicans running as dems right now. I'm just glad we don't have to deal with Roy Moore, so all those middle of the road guys are fine by me.
