The problem is people throw around words that don't have a lot of meaning.
Very few people in this country are self described liberals. The majority of Democrats in the US are still way to the Right of moderates in the EU or Australia.
Few who call themselves Republicans actually behave like Republicans say they should behave. Many Republicans will quite often behave like Democrats.
The problem with the GOP today is that since they don't often behave like they say they should...nobody believes them.
The problem with the DNC today is that they say they believe in a lot of what Republicans stand for but then don't actually do it...so nobody believes them.
The majority of voters are really independents and will vote for character above anything else, knowing that it probably doesn't really make a difference if the president is a D or a R.
