Who do you support, and what are your politics?

[Onlooker]

Poll question: Who do you support, and what are your politics?

[Warren Stupidity]

1. I'm a progressive leftist who has no place to vote in your poll.

I actually don't know what a 'liberal' is. I've heard it is pretty bad though.

2. What Is A Liberal?

What do our opponents mean when they apply to us the label "Liberal?" If by "Liberal" they mean, as they want people to believe, someone who is soft in his policies abroad, who is against local government, and who is unconcerned with the taxpayer's dollar, then the record of this party and its members demonstrate that we are not that kind of "Liberal." But if by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people -- their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties -- someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a 'Liberal.'"

-John F. Kennedy September 14, 1960

4. I'm not a Liberal...

...I'm a Progressive.

Just as our political opponents are not "Conservatives," they are "Regressives."

These words make sense to me, and make more grammatical sense in general. Liberal and Conservative do not make sense to me at all, therefore I do not call myself a Liberal.

And yes, for the most part I do fit Kennedy's definition.

3. Same here

I'll be voting for DK in the primary...whoever our candidate is in Nov.

6. I'm a liberal who supports one of the other candidates.

I wanted Gore, or Kerry, or Clark first - but Bill Richardson's strong foreign policy knowledge and experience, his support of veterans, his promise to end the war in Iraq faster than the top three, and his strong record of support on human rights at home and abroad makes him my choice. But he's in the "second tier" and unless the voters in Iowa and New Hampshire do something extremely brave, he'll finish out of the running for the nomination. Also in the class of "others" are Joe Biden and Chris Dodd - fine Democrats who would do us proud as President. Of the media's selected top three, I see Edwards as a fraud, Obama as a pandering cheerleader, and only Clinton as a strong enough candidate to fight and win against the GOP. I'll vote Richardson in the Primary, and support whoever our nominee in the general.

7. I'm a DSA voting for HRC

8. If you're a social liberal but an economic conservative, does that make one a moderate?

If so then I am one, supporting Edwards.
