I personally have been unscathed. Overall I’m probably more conservative in many ways than most people I know, but I’m also quite pragmatic at times. (FYI McCain was NOT the smart, pragmatic choice but I digress...)

In general, it seems like being "pragmatic" equates to being willing to give up on your principles "just a little". And then later, you give up just a little more.... until eventually you've lost all your freedom.

“but I’m also quite pragmatic at times.”

Pragmatism is good, it leads to accomplishments instead of being bogged down with indecision, inaction and unworkable solutions.
