I think of myself as a bit more liberal, but I've voted for both republicans and democrats.
I'm not registered for either party line so a good candidate can sway me.

I'll be voting for Obama though because he is moderate like I am. Republican candidates are exactly what's wrong with this country. Wall street elitest siphoning off jobs to pad their funds and one who hates the poor and would rather they die in a ditch than help them get on their two feet.

Mo sounds just like Rush Limbaugh. A couple of years ago I was driving my daughter to the barn and I was listening to him rant and rave about moderates, saying the same thing Mo is saying here.
You and Rush Mo. Two peas in a pod!

Those things on your little diagram are not opposites. The sad part of the story is regardless of which party you vote for, you have your portion of those 4 points taken from you year by year, even if you are being told differently.

Never willing to risk.
Never willing to put skin in the game.
Spend all their time criticizing and not collaborating.
If the OP is any indication, this is what Independents are like. They are like the people in school who never contribute to a group project, but take credit for the stuff that works and deride anything that doesn't.

Again you guys just don't get it. You also have to defend your side even when they are wrong or you have to be silent. I'll stick with my way.

Why would I put my skin in the game when neither party represents my best interests? A lot of terrible things have been done in the world by people who thought their side was just less bad than the other side.

Tali echoes Modeeb's partisanship? I was giving him too much credit I suspect.
You guys can keep your party mentality. I will stick with my issue to issue and subject to subject methodology.
Neither side is always right. Independents understand this.

And the irony is they are very different in theory, but in practice they are very similar.
Which part of this are many of you not getting?
