Hi! Thanks for the question.

Yes, Samuel P. Huntington considers himself a democrat. However based
on this New York Times interview, he is not very liberal in his views.

"What political party do you belong to?"

Huntington: "I'm an old-fashioned Democrat. I was dead-set against us
going into Iraq."

NYT: "Will you vote for Kerry, then?" 

Huntington: "Oh, yeah. I've met him several times. He lives a few
blocks away from me on Beacon Hill."
