I know it is difficult to have a discussion when it does not fall under the left vs right lines.... a bit too difficult to boil it down to short discussions. However the reality is that a lot of issues don't. I've been involved as a supporter/advocate for legalization for a long time. There is representation from both parties among groups... The main reason why Republican representatives will quietly support it personally but not publicly on their own platforms is due to the reliance on the evangelical / religious groups for their elections. For decades, vocal support for legalization of prostitution was considered political suicide because of the stigma society places on sex work. That is also the reason why Democrats are hesitant; but I believe it is changing....
Your logical reasoning here to weed legalization is faulty... comparison of unlike issues with different obstacles.

I will say that de-criminalization is far different from legalization in this context.
