The left must have some idiots too, since some are hoping Killery the witch will run.. She will be in jail in 2016

Kind of what I thought

He'll tucker himself out soon and then the GOP will put him down for his nap and let the adults get back to governing the country.

FYI: Exchanges open in six days. Obamacare moves forward.

4. believe in progressive taxation and alternative energy just to name a few things.
5. believe in Religious rights but not to the point it affects other religions or the religion this country was founded on.
6. I believe the most competent person should get the job, especially now in this day and age.
7. Believe in the right to bear arms, but feel stronger laws of screening should be implemented.
8. support immigration reform, but starting at the bottom up, secure the boarders and get all illegals out of America. Start all over
9. believe in Welfare, but not lifers on Welfare
10. believe in responsiblity of one's own choice, stop blaming others or expecting others to fund your life.
11. believe in much better laws....no one should be exempt.
12. I believe in across the board taxes
13. Fical budgets
14. one line veto
15. The end of a two party system, which has grown corrupt.
16. believe prisions should be cold dark places to go, not plush hotels
and more
Thank you for the list.
Seems like number 1 puts you on the liberal side not a moderate

Number 2 seems reasonable but you do not discuss how that will happen based on what spending
number 3 seems as long as you say its not your business you support gay marriage by default. One must be in favor or against gays legally marrying so by default its liberal
Number 4 I fine statement but how much progressive taxation do you think is enough is there a limit to your progressive tax rates? so I cannot say if your position shows a liberal or conservative bias
5 Seems to lean conservative
6. would be against race based hiring a conservative view
7. would need to know what stronger methods you seek seems a liberal slant
8 conservative view point
9.Your view would depend on what you would do about it
10 Sounds conservative
11. what laws would be needed to cite an slant
12. Not sure if you mean flat tax or taxing the poor
13 you mean actually passing a budget
14, A conservative view not sure its constitutional

15 the money that corrupts it will go somewhere
16 seems a very conservative view

So in defining a moderate it seems you think that a moderate holds some conservative positions some liberal and some undefined. So you would not be seen by others as moderate only as the opposite of whatever position you take.

I am far from liberal, far from it....gay marriage as abortion, is none of my business nor anyone else's business....

I am yes, a conservative, but not a republican any longer, republicans have no backbone any longer, and do not stand for conservatives.

Yeah I don't get where Rafael is a formidable opponent. Put him up against a Democrat in a debate and he loses. Ron Paul had a lot of flowery rhetoric behind him, and his passionate supporters were sure he was going to win. Didn't he get 10% of the vote or less?
