Many (most?) of you seem completely connected to one or the other of the two 'teams'. I find it hard to understand that any individual would 'happen' to agree with everything on one of the 'teams' agenda - and nothing on the otherīs.
What would you call someone agreeing equally with both teams agenda although on different issues ? A liberative or a consiberal ??

When you figure it out, I'm betting the majority of us Americans would like to know which "label" they belong to also
! You may not get this impression from PPOT political threads, but most "regular" folks that I associate with aren't preoccupied with politics and thusly, "liberal" and "conservative" never come up. In my circle of friends/acquantances, pick an issue, and the opinions will fall on both ends (and middle) of the spectrum depending upon the topic at hand.
