[QUOTE="user"] Ewwww, don't even get me started about the Libertarian party.[/QUOTE] Ha. :-) Seems like the only people who ever try to invoke secondary meanings of "liberal" in political discussions are Right-leaning folk (which in my experience includes certain self-described Libertarians). [QUOTE] Unfortunately, they don't allow children in Middle School to vote. ;-) But in the ones I was able to legally vote in, I voted for Bush Sr, Clinton, Bush Jr, and Kerry - at least if you count a vote against Bush as a vote for Kerry. Local elections are totally mixed, depending on who happens to be running.[/QUOTE] I wouldn't call you a conservative at all. To me, you're obviously an Independent.
