Instead of voting for democrat or republican, you can look at the minor parties. Some of them are pro-life and pro-traditional marriage. The only way these parties will grow if people take a chance at vote for them, although it might take years for them to be a threat to the mainstream parties.
A very important point that.

We may say that voting third party is useless, but the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. No third party is going to succeed in rescuing us from this two-party mess we have if everyone who considers voting for it says that that party will probably lose the election we're facing now. The question that never gets asked is "How will a good campaign this year, even if it ends in a loss, make more likely winning the election a few years down the road?"

Im a free market capitalist and I dont care if homosexuals get married. This Christian votes libertarian.
As Christians, do we support the legalization of drugs, abortion, same-sex marriage? Perhaps there are Christians who do, but does God? That's the question Christians should be asking, not the party they affiliate with.

Yes to all except abortion.

God doesnt fully agree with any party.

Not necessarily. Those actions you support or oppose are not necessarily those that you think the laws should allow or deny to other persons. You may consider divorce to be against God's will, for example, but not believe that other persons who want to divorce should be prohibited by law from doing so.
