I'm a 20+ year veteran of politics, so I know something about it. And one extremist's moderate is another's conservative. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.....

[Austin Willard Wright]

It would be more accurate to say that yesterday's moderate is today's extremist. 70 years ago Social Security, federal control of welfare and education, massive farm subsidies, affirmative action, etc. were considered "extreme" now they are considered "middle-of-the-road." Prepare to shift your views to the left in the next twenty years or you too will be considered an extremist like yours truly.
