I am somewhat surprized at the number of independents in the poll. I thought I was one of only a few in this forum.
I am fiscally progressive and morally conservative, yet I feel that my religious beliefs are my own and I do not believe in creating laws that are theocratic in nature. I will refuse to be a member of a curch that gets politically active. I like and enjoy my second amendment rights but I feel the NRA is strictly a profit-oriented organization and could care less about some damned "piece of paper" that gives me the priviledge of bearing arms. I champion the underdog and resist those that would claim dominance over my existence and lifestyle.
I vote for any politician that serves my best interests, political party be damned. Ergo, I've voted for politicians in various flavors, but seeing as if I'm in the middle class, I've had to vote more Dem than anything else as the Repub party doesn't seem to care for me and my interests as much as the Dem party does. As a result, I've voted Dem on the federal level and mixed on the state/municipal level.
Life is good.
