As a lifelong independent, I really can’t stand how the left has begun calling all independents conservatives in denial these last couple years. I’m practically a socialist. I just think Democrats largely suck, too, so I’ll vote for them, but I’m not going to pretend to be one of them.
I typed out probably a dozen different replies of all kinds to you, but ultimately decided against posting any of them because on reflection they could all be seen as negative.
So rather than that, I’ll say you raise a valid point and I apologize for my previous statement. I think you and I could probably see eye to eye on a lot of subjects.
I suspect we would. I’m fortunate that I don’t have to register with a party to vote in their primaries, so I can happily remain registered as independent unless/until a better party comes along and gains traction.
