Can an Apostle also be a Democrat...?

It's beginning to dawn on me that I may have asked the wrong question...

From the link:

Social and human ideas:
Democrat - Community and social responsibility based
Republican - Individual rights and justice based

Given the Mormon track record on the rights of individuals perhaps I should have asked "Can an Apostle be a Republican..."

Anyone that tries to say that because yesterday there were plenty of good Mormon Democrat Apostles need to reflect on what they are saying.

Democrats of the past used to be much more Conservative. For example, JFK would today be considered a Bush Right Winger. Today's Democrat Party has been taken over by the Socialists and Marxists/Communists, that were the fringe and despised of the past.

Zell Miller left the party because of how leftist it has become. Joe Lieberman left the party because of how leftist it has become, and some others.

Zell Millers speech at the Republican Convention is a must watch.
