Moving forward, beyond partisanship

The divisive and mean spirited bickering between the two extremes of the political spectrum has left the majority of us, with mixed or moderate views, out of the process almost entirely.  The unreasonable, angry, loud, and 'ideologically pure' mentality of both major political parties has stalled our national progress, and has lowered much of our political process to the finger pointing and name calling of third grade.  This is a problem many of us can agree on, even some of those shouting at the other side agree civility and respect have gradually left the nation's political discourse.  For too long the civil minded and forward looking population has been without an organizing cry.  Enter No Labels, a politically minded organization dedicated to getting our population to put aside our differences, to stop labeling those who disagree with us in an effort to discredit them, to elect a government that works for it's people and not it's parties, and to stop attacking people for their views or beliefs.  This is exactly the kind of putting aside of differences our country needs, and we here at Maine Independence support any effort to bring honor and cooperation back to both government and our society as a whole.  Stop by the No Labels website, see what they have to say, and make the choice to move past our current situation, working together, for a tomorrow we can all be proud of.
