Media Matters: All Over But the Lying
This is the second commentary I've posted on this drumbeat about America being a Center-Right nation. See also this posting by David Sirota. http://thecenterstrikesback.com/2008/11/03/david-sirota-mandate-08-reagan-vs-fdr.aspx
This is a discussion at odds with itself because there is no precision in defining left, center and right politically. That's why my book suggests the true issue behind political questions is whether the majority favors (given a particular issue) total government control or total individual freedom or some blend in between.
That said, read this article to get a new perspective on the concept of left, right and center politically.
