i don't think either side is better. i think both parties have a few good ideas, and many bad ones. both sides think they're always right. both point fingers when the other has an awful moment. each tries to take the moral high ground, when really, neither can occupy it all the time.
i love when debate occurs. what i hate is when people take it to a personal level.

I think there are two seperate conversations here..The first is strictly issue based...Some fall in the middle like yourself, others, like Pointman, Dell and myself generally find themselves 100% in one camp or the other. I disagree with you that both parties have good ideas..but that's politics. But there is a reason that there are no popular lefty whackos like Rush, etc..I don't need a blowhard to tell me how to think or to give me talking points or to affirm my beliefs..it sure seems that many republicans do and that the viatrolity coming from the airwaves is mimicked often. Again....being a liberal ain't the death knell...That Dani is my point. I don't hate Republicans, but I can guarantee you there are many, many more Republicans that do hate Liberals.
