Been thinking about yank's venn diagram discussion.. Interesting from an academic perspective and provides some justification how we categorize our political bent.. I consider my beliefs to be generally aligned with conservative values, but not totally, so I'm outside the conservative circle and overlap with some liberals and independents in Venn diagrams.. So the dilemma comes in the voting booth.. 'am I mostly in this guy/gals Venn circle or mostly outside the other candidate's?' When we are faced with 2 moderate positions, the circles overlap to the extent it could be coin toss.. But if you have a radical liberal Democrat and a wishy washy moderate Republican, you hold your nose and vote the largest portion of your circle.. That's why McCain got my vote last November.. alas..
