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.

demos and repubs are the same side of the coin...both funded and controlled by bankers to get into office
why do you think the president spend several millions to get into office to make several hundred thousand...

Generally Republicans seem to be embracing it more, but mostly the tea party variety. But Greg Abbot, the Republican gubernatorial nominee (who is very likely to win) is accepting Bitcoin donations, and he's not exactly tea party, he's sort of establishment-trying-to-appeal-to-tea-party-voters-but-doing-it-wrong.

Neither. They can't control it or inflate it to hell so they can fund wars with it. We can get individual politicians through donations, but both parties are establishment big spenders that need a currency they can manipulate.

Let's see, breaking it down by the two main party policy arenas:
Fiscally: Republicans would be more likely to support (because of tenets of fiscal individualism/responsibility and lessened regulation).
Socially: Democrats would be more likely to support (because of accessibility, and as a nascent tool to dwindle parity).
Getting to the heart of your question, I'd have to say Republicans would be more likely to embrace bitcoin if it regulatory laws surrounding bitcoin made it become significantly more viable. Until then though, I'd assume democrats would give more support to bitcoin as a social parity tool.
In either case though, the support given by either party will be significantly marginal.

Both, Republicans and Democrats represent USA and their politic and economic, monetary system including US dollar.
So, officially, I really doubt that they can easily accept bitcoin.

Republicans Vs Democrats: Who is more likely to embrace bitcoin more?
in terms of regulations, campaign donations, etc.

Well when you limit it to only republicans vs democrats you are kinda missing the whole libertarian and tea party line. people say those two groups are the most friendly towards them. i have to say they are right, i have seen libertarians who accept bitcoinf or their donations.
democrats will demonize it and say it is only for rich people and blah. if you look at older news stories every left wing media propaganda machine like ABC/MSNBC/NBC/whatever was all against bitcoin and said how its drugs drugs drugs sex prostituion hit men drugs drugs drugs omg were all gonna die!
How the hell could bitcoin be for rich when anybody could take part in it and it is not like some exchange traded fund where only the rich can participate
there are multiple multiple articles that talk about white privelege and how rich white people are the majority of bitcoin users. the liberal media lies all the time about stuff like this man. go search it up. stupid articles like thatmake people not want to buy bitcoin, the right wing doesnt really say anything about bitcoin.

None of the above, go against the US Dollar, why would they commit political suicide! 
If any political party is to embrace Bitcoin, it'd be the Libertarian Party:

Bitcoin would be excellent for Republican campaign donations, the Koch brothers would be able to donate $millions directly rather than using their 'non-profit' organizations.

Don't think either party will embrace bitcoin.
August 13, 2014, 03:56:30 AM
it depends on people but not on political views imho
But if we talk directly about republicans and democrats: democrats should be more loyal (only if we remember the origin meaning of democrats(!))

The illusion of choice is strong in this decision.
I would assume its marginal either way.
