are you more liberal or more conservative?

I wanted to add, that I mention this not because the majority are one way or the other, but to show that we are more diverse than we appear. A poll allows people to vote anonymously, so people that might not typically post, can have a voice.

I am a bit weird. I am liberal with most social issues but yet with my own personal life (dress, speech etc.) I tend to be more conservative. But, for the poll I had to say liberal.

Everyone gets one vote.
I cast mine.

I am a liberal socially and a bit more conservative fiscally so I would really so I am a moderate but that wasnt a choice

I voted

There needs to be a choice of "somewhere inbetween" :horse:

I wonder if people view FV one way or another?
I never really thought about that.

I hope we come across as inclusive and diverse!!!!

I always PM the people that feel beat up and leave and try to get them to stay.....

I voted! I never have sen FV one way or the other.

I voted conservative.
I really am a conservative, but my hubby is even futher to the extreme right that I am, so he thinks I am getting liberal in my "old age!"
Really, the only area that I am not all the way to the right on, is the environment. My husband is a an "agricultural chemical sales rep/manager", so the fact that I am an "organic/recycling nut" (his words), doesn't exactly match with him!

TOO BAD!

I consider myself a moderate, but if I was going to lean one way, it would be liberal.

I'm as Liberal as the next Southern Baptist.

somewhere in the middle I think

I always got the impression I was much farther on the liberal end than most on the board. I don't point this out in any insulting way, just mentioning that it did always feel like I was "different."

I am the same I also voted liberal.

Right now the poll is at 50-50. We really are a balanced group. :toothy:

I feel in-between. I guess I am conservative personally, but policitally somewhat liberal.

Moderately conservative.

Me too. I try to walk the "middle path" in all areas of my life, but around here I often feel like I'm way out in left field all by myself.

You have to remember that people are placing themselves in the liberal or conservative category. People have different definitions of what each of those means. So one persons idea of "liberal" may still seem very "conservative" to someone else.

I don't see a great deal of "diversity" around here. But in my experience with online forums that's really not unusual. People online tend to clump together with other people they at least think are "likeminded".

Do you ever wish there was option 3?

Like I sort of don't fit the L or C.
I also am starting to not relate with my political party however I don't relate with the other party either.

We need a middle party
