No, really. Look at the original trio of characters.
Mike Doonesbury is a Republican, happily married to a much younger woman whose family was murdered by Communists in the 1970s. His previous wife was an insane artist and although I don't think they ever _said_ she was a Democractic Party
voter, I think she was still around when Mike came out of the closet and reacted badly.
BD, of course, is a Republican who volunteered for military duty in combat zones three times.
Mark the former Communist Activist is in a dead end job. In contrast, his lover, a Republican, is wealthy and successful.
I can go on. Compare and contrast Lacey Davenport (R) to the man she defeated back in the 1970s (Ventura, I think (D)). What's her name, the woman who left her husband to look for personal growth and self-realization? She ended up working for _Lacey_. Not a Democrat, a Republican.
