Maybe you're reading lib sites all of the time. Almost every site (check out Gallup and Rasmussen for the latest) which does polling puts the number of "self-identified liberals" at around 20-22% of Americans. "Self-identified conservatives" come in at 40-42%. Another reason may be a matter of terms. For instance, I sometimes self-identify as a "classic liberal"; i.e., what liberalism used to mean: free markets, freedom of choice (not just abortion) with individual liberty one of the highest priorities--not the cause de jour. Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. Sharonsj,
