Anarchists Ready for Republican National Convention

My question is: "Where were they for the DNC?" For being "Anarchists" they sure make it clear that their political party of choice is the Democratic Party.
In so doing, are they really Anarchists? Or just wannabes?
Fifty of the country's leading anarchists are expected to be in the city for the Republican National Convention, and a handful of them are hard-core extremists with histories of violent and disruptive tactics, according to police intelligence sources.
Police said each of the 50 have up to 50 followers who are willing to be arrested during disturbances at the convention. This group, police say, is expected to engage for the most part in civil disobedience, including sit-ins in front of delegates' buses. They also may stage more direct-action tactics, such as vandalizing McDonald's and Starbucks.
