In a two party system I'd be more inclined to vote Tory than Labour.
So that would automatically make me a Republican! Choice Obama or McCain? Makes no difference, they like our MPs are only the 'front puppets' of the people who really run the Country and the civilised World!

Trying to compare Labour and the Conservatives to the Democrats and the Republicans doesn't work - they are worlds apart. On such a simple basis, the Tories are actually probably closer to the Democrats.

I always look on Democrats as "touchy feely" and I abhor 'touchy feely' politicians! Liberal and real life do not mix well!

Not as scary as being told your country is being swallowed whole by the new Soviet Bloc - the EU.

The European Union and the Soviet Union aren't comparable on any level I'm familiar with, especially politically or economically.
