Whether technically registered with these parties or not, this is how I would self-label.
1789-1797 - Pro-Administration (Federalist) 1797-1825 - Democratic-Republican 1825-1832 - National Republican 1833-1860 - Democratic 1861-2008 - Republican
I don't know if I would have voted for Lincoln the first time, but once the war started I would have fallen into the fold, I believe. No, I don't like slavery, I'm just not sure I really would have taken the chance.
I probably would have voted for FDR from 1932-1944, and possibly Truman in 1948, but I don't think I every would have considered myself 'not a Republican'.
Well, that's my take on it, anyway.
