I believe he has genuine quirky political views with some wild contradictions but part of me seriously believes he strives to be hated.

Someone that doesn't take the politically popular position for the sake of being popular. So basically, someone that takes unpopular positions more often then not usually to piss off people.

He views are generally Moderate Heroish (ie quasi-Rockefeller Republican/Lieberman Democratic social liberalism) but with bizarre lines of reasoning (ie supporting Santorum over Bob Casey or Angle over Reid).

I supported santorum because he is much smarter than casey.  And casey is a protectionist.

I'd say so. He reminds me of your classic Rockefeller Republican (which there's absolutely nothing wrong with, Mitty would honestly have a better chance in MA as a Pub).

So on top of your obvious lame trolling, you're ignorant of the man's views. Shocking.

I think he thinks that left-wing and right-wing correspond to social issues and not economic issues.

WM is a Moderate Villain. A moderate hero takes positions to please everyone and ends up pleasing no one (See: Joe Lieberman, Mark Pryor, Arlen Specter). WM takes positions that everyone hates, on purpose, and also ends up pleasing no one.
