What is the Middle Thirty?

What is the Middle Thirty? As someone who has had an interest in politics their entire life, I have found that our current two-party system does not adequately represent the views of a good portion of the voting public: the middle thirty percent. The same middle thirty percent of the population that helps to decide elections by serving as swing votes in crucial years (2000 and 2006 are good years for reference), the same middle thirty percent that are often labelled as Libertarians or Moderates in today's political spectrum.

This blog is just a small attempt to discuss all things political from a moderate point of view. Ideally a point of view that is rooted in facts, devoid of any adherence to tradition or superstition for the sake of it.  Nothing will be taboo here, nothing off limits. Only by willingness to discuss any issue, regardless of one's emotional connection to the topic, can this country advance and progress.
