No, not yet, I suppose it would be Progressive, but I need to learn more about their positions on issues before I can agree to them. They'll likely be my choice though.

Indeed, I'm a Socialist. Put I've noticed American politics to be slanted towards the right as compared to the equivalent parties in Canada. Therefore I'm always apprehensive. For example the Canadian Conservative Party (Canadian Republicans) want to invest more money in public healthcare! You can see why I might be a little weary of American parties. Maybe you guys aren't right, we're just really left. Who knows.

You might be liberals, but I am a leftwing nut. And due to a request in the Re: 5 Regions thread I am now listed under South Carolina. So, I'm a Canadian Progressive in South Carolina... ya I know.

Crazy you say? What's wrong with a Progressive movement? Could it be that you fear the Progressives will take Democratic votes? It seems to me that your implying that the Progressives used unfare methods to woo me into their camp, I can tell you that that's not true. I've been a Socialist for a long time.

Also if we were to start chants I'm sure we could come up with better than that one. It sounds like Zombie Turkeys to me. Not an appealing image.

Siege, if you changed to Democrat, we'd openly welcome you Smiley

LOL! Me? A Democrat... no. I make John Kerry look like a Compassionate Conservative. A democrat I am not. Sorry friend, I don't think so.

Republicans back then stood for something different. They were more left then the Democrats for a period. It wasn't until the 1920s with the rise of extremism that the parties took on difinitive left-right characteristics. Or something like that.
