It has nothing to do with religion, and everything to do with having a different set of priorities...like thinking for ourselves instead of following what a bunch of polls say.
That is what you wrote. You say that you have a different set of priorities and state that one of those priorities is thinking for yourself. Speaking as a conservative, you made it sound like a liberal was not capable of thinking for themselves.
I would hope you can understand where that inference came from.
What I think is that there are a lot of people who don't put much thought into who they're going to vote for, whether they're liberals or conservatives.
I completely agree. The electorite in this country is grossly uninformed and makes decisions based on far less than all the information.
That is not what I inferred from your statement and why I asked you to clarify.
