Libertarian-leaning Republicans. Democrats are afraid of it because it's unregulated.
Mainstream candidates from either party have little reason to "embrace" bitcoin. Their constituents won't change the way they vote based on a candidate's bitcoin position, and they get a lot of "campaign contributions" from the banking cartel.
I consider myself a Libertarian-leaning Republican, and I've been taking Bitcoin donations since I filed to run for Congress back in May. I also attended the Bitcoins in the Beltway conference back in June as was in one of the panel discussions, and have issued Bitcoin related press releases, some of which have been picked up by Forbes (Boring Bitcoin Report), The Crypto Crimson, MadBitcoins, Cointelegraph, Bitcoin Magazine, etc.
I've also a miner, and am currently using mining equipment from KnCMiner and Spondoolies-Tech.
In the recent Primary, I was able to knock out the Independent challenger, so I will be up against the Democratic incumbent in the November election.
Saturday is my 40th Birthday, so if you can, throw me a bone in my "Over The Hill" for "Capitol Hill" donation drive. (You must live in the US, and must provide name, address, etc. to donate. I know a lot of Bitcoin folks don't like that, but its the current FEC rules. Bitcoin donations are currently capped at $100 maximum due to ambiguous FEC guidelines.)
