The Centrist Group Hug

[JSojourner]

In Response to Torie's idea in this thread:
https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=95634.0#msg1986577

This is the Centrist Group Hug.

1. Gustaf, General Secretary of the Centrist International
2. Frodo, leader of our Democratic insurgence wing
3. Torie, leader of our Republican insurgence wing
4. Hughento, who wouldn't want to be left out of a group hug with a bunch of guys
5. AKSaber, see #4
6. Lunar, because he's popular
7. Alcon, director of Centrist intelligence services
8. Joe Republic, because he has no ideology
9. Sam Spade, see #9
10. WalterMitty, because no one knows what his ideology is

We're a big-tent hug of course, so feel free to nominate other centrists for the giant group hug.

Among Republicans, you must include Bullmoose and Nick Naylor...both of whom are quite amazing!

I'm a little harder to please when it comes to Democrats being centrists or moderates.  I tend to be more of a "sh*t or get off the pot" kinda guy...but honestly, I realize we need them.  And they are usually pretty good guys.  Frodo is an excellent pick.  I don't know him that well but True Democrat might fit, don't you think? The erstwhile Gabu or Modu?  Ben?

I used to participate in group hugs.  But then, someone in the group would say something like, "Uh...okay.  That's enough.  No.  I mean, stop.  Please.  Okay...someone call security..."

What's up with that?

Where were your hands during the hug?  That is the first question that comes to mind. I may have others.

The image just reminded me of someone I knew.  There are friendly people...then there are "creepy-friendly" people.  He was one who always hugged and wouldn't let go.  His hands didn't always wander.  At least, not always...  <shudder>
