Eh, it's not that hard when you think more in terms of views instead of parties. If you look at that candidate list, most of the people I voted for lean to the right or at least center. My vote for Roosevelt  can be explained as being a response to Hoover's failure and incompetent meddling in the economy. My vote for Clinton can be explained by his cutting welfare, crime, etc. and relative moderation compared to his opponent. My votes for Gore and Kerry can be explained as responses to Bush's obvious incompetence and general satisfaction with the Clinton years.
