I am somewhere in between Third Way and being a traditional liberal Democrat.  But if push comes to shove, I'd pick Third Way.

Conservative would probably fit me the best. Centerist/populist fiscally + center-right socially.

Not to rag on you or anything, but why are you a Democrat though? Curious?

My favorite political figure is Huey Long.

I got interested in politics in 2008, when everything was pro-Democratic - I've campaigned for many Democrats since then, so find it hard to switch. I'm sympathetic to the paleocon Republicans, if they become more of a force within the party, I may consider switching.

I'm also pro-life and I think that it would be a bad thing for the pro-life movement if it just had a presence in one party.

Progressive, but of course that's true leftist according to the 3rd wayers.

I would vote Democratic Socialist, but it wasn't an option, so I'm stuck between Progressive Democrat and Socialist.

Social: Conservative
Fiscal: Progressive
Foreign Policy: Non-interventionist

Total: Anti-Libertarian

So I guess this means liberal of the options here.

Liberal. Admittedly my disdain for much of the Sandersistas have toned down some of my progressivism over the campaign.

I don't think there's a difference in "liberal" and "progressive," so both of those.

I'm not really sure. I used to define myself as leftier than thou, but I'm pro-free trade which puts me at deep odds with a lot of the so-called "progressive" movement, and their campaign against the TPP.

Social Policy: Liberal
Economic Policy: Progressive
Foreign Policy: Centrist

However, I definitely put more value on economics, so I'd say progressive.

Who would you define as "progressive" and who as "socialist"?

I've never seen a candidate's supporters so demonized before.
