6. Fence sitting is no longer an option
And i'm a moderate!
I believe in a bit of everything. I like money, I think commerce and capitalism is good... to an extent!

People get passionate here because we are all so HOPPING MAD! at the current political system. At least during Clinton (you know unprecedented prosperity and relative peace around the world) the system was still reasonably honest. We voted and knew our votes were fairly counted, etc.

FOLLY IS IN THINKING ALL DECENTERS ARE LEFT WING WACKOS!!!!

I know some LWW... they are generally nice people. We can generally agree on most things. This wonderful country of ours is going to hell in a hand basket over profit and it doesn't need to happen!

I changed to Democrat in 1996 to make a point! I was independent before that. But I COULD NOT sit back and be independent any more. I grew up. I looked around and saw the CRAP that everyone, myself included, was going thru for the sake of profit. It was a great time but jobs were still cut throat. Now it's all out anarchy - to continue the analogy. No jobs are sacred, no one is so good they can not be replaced with someone younger, cheaper, or in another country, even if that means lower quality!

DEMOCRATS REPRESENT THE MAJORITY OF OUR INTERESTS!

The only people the GOP represents any more are the ultra, ULTRA rich. Thats it. They don't even represent the wing nuts they are always pandering to. Just the unethically rich.

That's my opinion, I could be wrong.
