(3,795 posts)back and forth when I know it would be wasted time.
If you really DO support liberal positions and policies, I would suggest that you begin arguing from a place that shows support for those policies (via PLENTY of issues polling) instead of undermining potential support for liberal governance by citing statistics that show 21% support for a label that has been purposefully demonized over the past few decades.
Or, do you believe that "liberal" has NOT been purposefully maligned and marginalized over the past few decades? Citing the 21% statistic in light of what has happened in this country over the past few decades regarding the word "liberal" AND in light of the popular support that many liberal issues have throughout our country (and have had) is something I would expect my political opponents to do.
Anyways, the floor is yours. I won't be responding any further so have at it. You get the last response here.
