On Edit: Couldn't find the quote from the 1975 move, Shampoo, where the old dude calls the Julie CHRISTIE character a whore, and the Warren BEATTY character says, "Aw, don't call her that. You can call ANYBODY that." (something like, quotation)
So, we can call ourselves or others anything. Zell calls himself a Dem, too, even now. What does Joementum call himself?

In Sunday's New York Times Magazine, reporter Deborah Solomon asked "Fox News Sunday" anchor Chris Wallace what political party he belonged to. His answer: "None of your business."
Oh, please. Ever heard of a little thing called public records? After five minutes of exhaustive research, we found that Wallace is a registered Democrat and has been for more than two decades. ....
The District resident says his party affiliation is driven by simple pragmatism: "The reason I'm a registered Democrat is that in Washington, D.C., there is really only one party," Wallace told us yesterday. "If you want a say in who's going to be the next mayor or councilman, you have to vote in the Democratic primary." (No offense intended, we're sure, to GOP D.C. Council rep Carol Schwartz or independent David Catania , who was first elected as a Republican.)
Wallace is a regular at his local polling place, and says he's voted for members of both parties. "Look, some people think
shouldn't vote at all -- I think that's a little silly. . . . However I vote personally, I think I'm professional enough that it doesn't have anything to do with the way I cover the news." ....
