This demographic is an amorphous set of undecided people. There common characteristic is being undecided. They must be hell to go to a restaurant with. You know the type? It's not like a political election is choosing a wine from a cellar with 1000 different wines. You choose this or that candidate. You get two choices. That's it. And the irony is they are very different in theory, but in practice they are very similar.

Independents have two candidates to choose from. Party line voters have one.

This is the very reason your side never gets it. You aren't alone, the other side of you LWNs are RWNS and they don't either.
There ISN'T an issue I don't have a stance on. Try me.

Tell that to the president you will gleefully vote for again - you know, the conservative one.

Never heard of it, but a quick google.. It seems dumb to me. A waste of resources in my opinion. I am sure it has uses, but not sure what that has to do with politics.

I always love the argument that if we aren't on one of the sides we don't believe in anything.

Not really. We don't go to the same restaurant over and over each time we go out. Especially after you order fish and they bring you mac & cheese.
What's more, the statement I've quoted stands in contradiction to the rest of your post. "Independents are indecisive. They can't make a choice between one of two, when the two are virtually the same".
What's the point of making a choice between two of the same? Hmmm...will I go to Applebee's or Shari's tonight? Doesn't matter...they both have fish and mac & cheese on the menu and both are just as likely to screw up my order.
