Never have I claimed to be a moderate centrist. (Please don't get
caught smokin that stuff in public, you might have to start posting
from jail).

Yuk, yuk.... Anyway, it's sammy antics Your post started with the
words:

"The rough guesstimate of an undecided independent"

Forgive me if I thought you were refering to yourself.. And unless you
consider main stream democrat, independant, you must have been talking
about someone else, my bad, good night...


I thought you were brighter than that. In fact, I'm sure you are, and
by a fair margin. You have simply failed to examine all of the
possibilities.

Ask yourself:

1. Can one be undecided without being a "moderate centrist"?

(or, if that's not decipherable change the question to; "Is every
undecided person a moderate centrist?")

Then, ask yourself:

2. Can one be politically independent without being a centrist? Is
everybody who is not a Democrat or a Republican a centrist?

In a binary vision of the world where everything is black or white,
right or wrong, Democrat or Republican, I guess it would be hard to
visualize a person who was undecided who wasn't "stuck between" the
two parties. If it helps, imagine a guy too far right to be a
Republican.
(Example: http://www.cfpa-wa.us/osprey-wa.htm)
If you see the world as divided into Democrats, Republicans, and
independents where would you place the Christian Falange Party of
Washington State? If they are not Democrats or Republicans, then by
your theory they must be centrists?

Politically independent simply means not aligned with or a member of a
political party. Has nothing to do with being a centrist.

I repeat- never have I claimed to be a moderate or a centrist. I leave
the lying in this group to others.


Sooner or later, Chuck.
