I didn't see anything on the poll I liked.


Then u r a typical "volatile", cat 6...

Those classifications are so clear...

Noone should complain...
Sorry, you don't have something like: "I vote for the candidate's policies, not the party."

Why does the poll make it seem like if you are right wing you must be a GOP voter. I'm a far right winger but I DESPISE the GOP.

These days it's hard to be real sure ..

I do know that Republicans and Democrats will "never" again get my vote .. they're all done IMHO .. Neither one of them stand for anything, so let's send them all back to the law firms and corporate board rooms where they belong and get on with the business of America. I think we can do just fine without any of them.

Far right fanatical conservatives and far left loony liberals are a worthless bunch as well .. we might do well to totally ignore these too .. they've got nothing to bring to the table of any great importance or consequence .. they are a superficial and shallow lot .. "to hell with the nation", they say, "just as long as "MY" ridiculous agenda is passed and lorded over the people, I'll be just fine."

Let's say we vote for a few housewives, a few iron workers (if there are any left), a few construction workers, a few daycare operators .. and so on and so forth.

How about we vote for some people that are glad to be American .. some people that "really" knows how it "really" is out here among the huddled masses.

How about we vote for a few "REAL" Americans next time around.

As a moderate, I have to agree with this. But I would say that a "real American" can come from any walk of life. It's an issue of mindset.

Registered Independent-Conservative Liberal - voted Democrat in last election. Would have rather seen Kucinich in office, but didn't have the luxury of that choice, unfortunately.
