    This is not a very scientific poll but I am still dying to see the results. Register yourself and comment below. Except for age registration, I know this is a really gross generalization. If you complain about it, I know whee to put you!

    I'm over thirty, but I don't think either side would claim me.

    Where is the moderate choice.

    I am over 30, conservative fiscally, and liberal in many other ways.

    I believe in lower taxes, Pro Choice, Gun control, the Death Penalty...heck, I am all over the place.

    wow... I thought I was the last conservative left in Generation X, and now it seems like our category is leading the poll... though there aren't that many results in yet.

    Interesting that the voices of our generation are supposedly liberal... but many of us - who knows, maybe most of us - don't vote that way.

    23 - lean to the right...

    But I feel that both sides have their ups and downs.

    Well, considering the life span has increased significantly since his time, I think you are still considered young by today's standards;)

    Under 29/Favor right but consider myself Independent.

    - Find moderate liberals interesting and radical collectivists insane.

    I do believe one cannot fly without a left and a right wing.

    I'm with DD. Fiscally conservative (except with my own cash;) ) and socially liberal...and waaay past 30! Maybe you should have added a Libertarian option....I took an online political test and it told me that's what I was. I never would have known otherwise.
