What party would you be

[Platypus]

USA: Democrat, but purely as a lesser evil. I could support Republicans in some state races and for some house seats that they'd never win anyway.
GBR: LibDem/Labor swing voter. I'd be a bit of a Eurosceptic but other than that there'd be no reason to consider the Tories. Possibly Plaid in Wales; definitely Sons of Kernow in Cornwall.
France: Not the Socialists; not most of the UMP. I don't know enough about the rest to know who I'd vote for, so UMP by defaulty I suppose :/
Germany: I could quite happily vote for certain candidates from the CD(S)U, SDP and FDP. For list voting, probably FDP but it'd really depend on the year.
Italy: Eugh. The non-Berlusconi, non-communist/socialist, non-mafia, non-seperatist, non-racist, non-corrupt party. If one exists (surely there must be one, considering how many parties there are)
Spain: Meh, they're screwed anyway.
Israel: Labour? I completely zone out re: Israel/Palestine, so I know the names but nothing of the policies. Cept that the far right are destroying any chance for peace.
South Korea: I know zilch.
Japan: Probably the Communists, actually. Crazy.
Canada: Liberal, when lead competantly. NDP otherwise.
Australia: I voted for the Secular Party, as did less than 0.5% of my fellow Melbourne Ports electors. Preferenced Labor over the Greens or Liberals.

and, bonus!

New Zealand: Swing voter
India: Congress, by default. Maybe some of the regional interest parties.
South Africa: Democratic Alliance. As would 99% of other moderately left-leaning white males in their twenties, I'd guess.

FDP? You? Doesn't feel right, tbh.

I know. I think I'd be open to the SDP and CD(S)U also, maybe even a Green or two, and basically be a swinging voter but my vote would more commonly swing to the FDP than the CDU or SDP. The problem with the SDP is that they've become too weak-willed and passive. The FDP is a bit too pro-capitalism for me, but I think that's needed to counterbalance Der Linke and the rest of der linke. And whilst I'm not a conservaqueer fanboy, Guido Westerwelle is pretty impressive.

The passive remark applies to a lot of European politicians, fwiw, but it's more common on the left and particularly pronounced, it seems, in some of the already quite progressive countries such as Germany.

A bit of both; there doesn't seem to be any fire in the belly so to speak. Everything is deferred to Brussels or put into the too-hard basket. Australia hardly has perfect politics, but at least you get some sense of doing positive stuff for the national interest long-term, as well as the ideology. Europe's left seems basically to just be 'hmmn, well we could do that, but it really depends on how it affects on clause fifteen of treaty 1996-17a-5 so what we'll actually do instead is increase farm subsidies and protest banning burqas while we put up another security camera and heighten the division of cultures'.

I'm probably rambling (bit late here) but in my head I'm right
