Exit polls dont support your opinion....and in broader terms, neither do the polls results above.

Again, I know most Americans are not as far right as I am. Haven't I made that clear. If not, let me say - I see things in (figuratively) in black and white, I think being a "centrist" is being nothing and is a cop-out or fear of taking a stance. I don't compromise on issues important to me.
True. I have been trying to understand this concept for several years now. when I ask questions and seek clarification, I get ignored or the name calling begins. I am not going to give up - one day perhaps you can communicate how and why you compromise on your core values or beliefs. President Obama's willingness to compromise often leaves me confused.

its a good thing the framers of the Constitution understood the concept of compromise.
Nearly every of those guys left Philadelphia unhappy about one or more provisions of the Constitution.
But they understood the greater good....a concept that you still dont get if you think is a sign of weakness.
And you get feedback that you might not like when you take the discussion off course rather than address the issues and facts when confronted.
