ktc, 

re: "It's useless to attempt to define millions of complex people neatly into a sentence or two as if they were Rush Limbaugh Dittoheads or Faux Nooz Zombies."

Wow, do I ever disagree. Read the following and see how long it takes you to figure out which political side is almost perfectly described: 

o Oppose the Death Penalty
o Support Abortion
o Believe in Global Warming
o Mock those who take the Bible very seriously
o Our Country should not defend Christian or European Values
o Support Welfare
o Support Unions
o White People are Bad
o Compensation for Ancestral Victimization
o Support a Minimum Wage for the Poor
o Support a Maximum 'Wage' for the rich
o More Pay for Government Workers
o Oppose Drilling for Oil At Home
o Oppose Additional Nuclear Power Plants
o Oppose Burning Coal
o Support Solar / Wind / Geothermal Power
o Oppose SUVs
o Support Shoebox Cars
o Want Higher Taxes
o Want Marijuana Legalized
o No to Guns
o Animals are People too (a.k.a. Meat is Murder)
o Rent Control
o Pay for Services by Issuing Bonds
o Non-citizens should have the same rights as citizens
o Marriage is a Government Sacrament
o Industry Works Best When Run by Government
o Stop Defending Our Borders 

There. I've just defined what MILLIONS of people (Democrats) believe. It was easy, and I could probably produce a list that was twice as long if I spent another fifteen minutes thinking about it.

If people actually thought for themselves, as you imply that they do, I could not so easily compile a diverse list of recognizable Democratic attributes. (and, yes, I could do the same for Republicans.)

But people ARE "Dittoheads," "Zombies," and "Obummerphiles," ktc. Exceptions are UNUSUAL. I'm very surprised to see that you think otherwise.
