If your conflict is over which party to identify with, that is a different matter. Maybe you would be more comfortable calling yourself an independent. In any case, I think it is admirable that you make up your own mind.
I frequently fantasize myself as a Democratic Senator who crosses over the floor to vote conservative on key economic issues. I still vote (in my fantasy ) democratic on social issues and gun control, but then side with my conservatice colleagues on the death penalty and same-sex mariages.

That is before I run on a Presidential ticket of "hope and unity" coupled with a strong support for the military

And the fun part is I am not even an American citizen
