He tends to keep his politics pretty low-key, from what I've seen. I'm a longtime reader of his work, and have never run across him making an out and out political statement in interviews and the like.

My guess, and it's only a guess, is that he probably trends left-of-center, but not in a moonbat way.

Anyone else have more info?

Are you a fan of the Dark Tower series?

Obviously you've never read Insomnia. NARAL and NOW couldn't have done a better pro-abortion piece of propaganda.

I think he's becoming more lefty as he gets older. I used to love his books and his early ones seemed to be apolitical and sometimes even to the right a bit. But I stopped reading because more and more leftist views started cropping up in his works. I can't think of anything specifically, but it's there.

He pushed the "not one damn dime" while having construction done on his property the same day.

I read his book about the 2004 Red Sox season and it was filled with rants against Bush and the war on terrorism. It was totally out of place in a baseball book.
