One notable difference between conservatives and liberals: If someone takes a clearly conservative position on one current hot issue (i. e. thinks abortion should be illegal under all circumstances, teachers should be allowed to lead children in prayer, liberals control the media, etc.), you can usually accurately predict what position they will take on any other political issue. The same cannot be said of liberals. Conservatives generally gravitate in their opinions in a very predictible direction toward a very "black-and-white" answer. There is no uncertainty. Everything for them is clear. Liberals are more suspicious of "easy" answers and are less likely to see all issues
