Republican/Liberal

Not open for further replies.
I'm a Christian Liberal who votes Democratic.

A Christian Liberal??? What a strange combination. :)
 
I don't think in terms of parties so much as preferring candidates and people who work to improve lives regardless of political affiliation, like Anne Hathaway and her work with St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital.
Is she running for office? :confused:
I think she falls under the "people" category,

Yeah, that was a goof, I should have written people rather than candidates there. Starting off talking about parties, it just fell out and onto the page.
 
Moderate Republican

(my current favorite candidate is Jon Huntsman. I realize he's a longshot. If neither he nor Mitt win the nomination, I may vote Obama, since I can't stand most of the other Repub candidates)
 
Moderate, Independent. I lean more right economically and more left socially. I hate banks, the oil companies and organized religious institutions.
 
A middle of the road to liberal, registered Democrat. I'd be more than willing to vote for a Republican, if I didn't find the GOP's platform so reprehensible and there were a candidate worth voting for. There hasn't been one since . . . well there hasn't been one.

Doesn't mean I toe the line with everything the Dems say, nor disagree with each and every stance by Repubs. I'd say 80-20 liberal.

It shouldn't be that strange. I'm by no means a supporter of religion but a number of the things Jesus said were extremely "liberal" and certainly progressive. It's a shame the other parts of the Bible don't tend to follow through on that.
 
I recently registered to vote as a Democrat, though in the past I've voted Republican at times. I think of myself as pretty liberal when it comes to social issues.

In some ways I'm a textbook bleeding heart liberal.
 
I've voted for the Green Party in almost every election since I was old enough so far, and I don't see that changing any time soon. Otherwise I'm probably similar to what Count Zero said, hypothetically I would be part of the voter base of the Social Democrats, only they haven't really been social-democratic for many years.
 
Social democrat here (or democratic socialist, depending on my mood and the day of the week). I'm definitively leftist on economic issues, and extremely liberal on social issues.

I've been voting for the (Italian) Democratic Party, even if they are entirely too centrist for my tastes. My heart is more in line with Left Ecology Freedom, a small green/socialist party, but they are too fringe to be relevant considering the current electoral law here. If they change the electoral law (hopefully), I might switch to them.
 
Socially liberal, fiscally conservative, though I believe in investing in citizens first. I consider myself moderate-to-liberal, a registered Democrat but looking to change to Independent. Occasionally voted Republican.

As a liberal Democrat, allow me to sincerely and honestly offer my condolences. I liked Huntsman a lot because of his substance, and I feel he was shafted numerous times (for one, I don't get how he could be blacklisted for serving as an ambassador under Obama -- when the Senate *unanimously* confirmed him).
