No party. When I vote, I vote for the one who's the least reptilian. Maybe a couple of issues come into play, but I try to vote for the one with the least asshattedness.

Re: What is your Merkin political persuasion?
I pretty much do the same as FBM, but usually end up voting more liberal than conservative.
I'm wild just like a rock, a stone, a tree
And I'm free, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I flow, just like a brook, a stream, the rain
And I fly, just like a bird up in the sky
And I'll surely die, just like a flower plucked
And dragged away and thrown away
And then one day it turns to clay
It blows away, it finds a ray, it finds its way
And there it lays until the rain and sun
Then I breathe, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I grow, just like a baby breastfeeding
And it's beautiful, that's life

I'm a loyal Democrat...I might be persuaded to go Green with the right candidate though.

Re: What is your Merkin political persuasion?
On most issues, I'm a tad left of center, but on a few I end up a smidgen to the right. I don't want to be specific because I don't want to start yet another futile political debate.

Re: What is your Merkin political persuasion?
Fug if I know... I can be fairly conservative and drawn to Republicans, but since the party has given us such a gallery of complete crooks, kooks and utter morons since tricky dick, I feel they are doing all they can to (successfully) push me into the arms of the Dems.
I'm definitely not a teabagger or "libertarian" (at least not in the American meaning, and the French meaning would be nice if human nature made it practicable), but there are any number of the others that I don't even know what they stand for.

OK, maybe a few exceptions.

So I'd do as well registering as GOP, ok.

Depends on what you mean by "do as well." Your personal finances, in terms of social welfare, the arts and sciences, peaceful foreign policy...???Svartalf wrote:So I'd do as well registering as GOP, ok.

The poll missed Americans Elect. It might get some increasing attention in the coming months.
