How many of you guys would like to simply post what political affiliation you are?

You fence riders may answer "incapable of forming my own opinions" if you wish and may be added to the percentages.

I'm just kidding... I think.

But anyway.. Thought this may be kind of interesting.


I'll start it off...

    i'm actually liberal on many issues, but find it boring to discuss those here. but i strongly identify with the GOP on the issues that are most important to me. pencil that in as a con if you'd like.
    And you ask me what I want this year
    And I try to make this kind and clear
    Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days
    Cuz I don't need boxes wrapped in strings
    And desire and love and empty things
    Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days

    what i would like to see are the percentages of unified republicans, and dems.

    for the most part, reps are united.

    but then you have the dems who have accepted capitalism, and those that haven't. the party has been in decline ever since 1968, they have nothing to offer. my prediction in this upcoming election is 13 pickup by dems in the house, and 4 in the senate, which would leave them in minority status, again. if that's the case, where does the party stand? it could SERIOUSLY mean the end of this dopey party, forever!

    I'd generally say 80% Lib, 20% Cons.

    So in the spirit of the thread...Lib.

    So, mark me down as Conservative.

    issues i'm liberal on: abortion, "war on drugs," gay marriage, many social issues. but to tell you the truth, none of these issues are terribly important to me.
    And you ask me what I want this year

    so what are the odds on the stereotypes? when will the word "racist" or "evangelical" come about? we can hear about how we are ignorant hayseeds who have never picked up a book before. i can't wait.

    I have liberal demons I deal with as well. They aren't problems, it's just what you believe in.

    That's what debate is all about.

    How bout I don't know? I could say I am conservative, but that aligns my views publicly with views I am not supportive of. I can't say I am a liberal because that aligns me with views I don't support. I give up on parties, so I am an independent. Sorry for the ambiguity, but that is life. But don't confuse me me with someone who doesn't know what he believes.

    Mark me down as a social democrat bordering socialist.
    Yeah, I know it doesn't fit the mold here, but dont insult me by calling me a democrat. That would be like our conservative party here at home or something.

    I'll take neither. And that's based on an opinion, not the lack of one.

    100% Conservative all the way baby!
    How "people" can approve of issue's like gay marrige and abortion I don't know. It's disgusting.
    I’d thank my lucky stars,
    to be livin here today.
    ‘Cause the flag still stands for freedom,
    and they can’t take that away.

    And I’m proud to be an American,
    where at least I know I’m free.
    And I wont forget the men who died,
    who gave that right to me.

    I'm not liberal, I'm a democrat. I'm moderate on some issues, but I am sure some here would consider me a "liberal" because of my views of this administration and this war.

    On socials issues I lean more towards the liberal side. On fiscal issues, especially on decreasing the size and scope of the federal government, I am more conservative.
