Most of the Nation voted for George Bush 4 years ago. To be a moderate you either voted for him or almost voted for him......if the very idea of voting for him was repugnant to you then I've got some bad news for you.....you're not a moderate

Seeings how over 48% of the nation did not vote for Bush in the '04 election, I think your assertion of 'most' is a tad bit of an exaggeration. I'm a moderate as well- I've voted for two Republicans in past local elections, both of them being reasonable and moderate persons who I happened to think were the best persons for the jobs they were running for. I did not vote for Bush.

I've voted for dems in local elections, but somehow I don't think anyone here would accept that from me as proof that I'm moderate.

I wouldn't classify most mainstream media as anything but "dumbed down".

I would think that the number would have to be reduced to account for all the people who didn't vote at all.

Ummmmm.... No. "Most" of the nation did not vote for him - only about half. (So, we are rewriting history now?) By that measure, only about half the moderates voted for him.
