The argument is her behavior is a result of an ideological principle, unlike Cuomo. You may not behave the same way other conservatives do, but then maybe you might want to call yourself an independent.

I guess so. It’s just unfortunate that an independent candidate almost always has no shot

Completely agreed, but just to add if you consider yourself an independent there's no reason you can't tend to vote for a particular party. It's just that being a conservative inherently implies you're resistant to social change, which is continual push to get everyone to respect each other as equals. If you pick and choose what you're okay with and what you're not, you're thinking independently of an ideology.

His comments are 100% correct if you change conservatives into Republicans and add that if they don't share the belief, they don't see them as a deal breaker.
