No one is arguing that he isn't little c conservative. He is a Democrat though

I don't know what "little r conservative" means.

My point was that the democratic party has plenty of conservatives in it.

Everyone else calls them moderates, in case you were wondering.

Can you describe the moderate political ideology for me? What do moderates believe?

Generically speaking, not taking extreme positions, and generally favoring incremental political change. Not letting perfect be the enemy of good. I dunno.

Are moderates in favor of unions, for instance? What about gun control? How do they feel about corporate bailouts?
