What is "Third Way" & Who here supports it?

[Algernon Moncrieff]

47. It's a movement of people that believe that good policy comes from collaboration and compromise

If you, like us, are a moderate, you are not alone.

You weigh arguments from both sides. You see complexity where others find certainty. You don’t shout down discussion. You see the folly of absolutes. Compromise is a virtue. You are willing to give a little to get a little. You want government to work and believe it can, but fear it won’t. Your decision is not whether to vote, but for whom to vote. You are willing to be persuaded. You are a moderate; you occupy the center. You represent the plurality of the national electorate. You are interesting. And you are not alone.

If you, like us, are a moderate you are among diversity. Thirty-seven percent of self-identified moderates are non-white, which is more diverse than either liberals (30%) or conservatives (25%). You may be young. Millennials are the most moderate of any voting generation. You lean Democratic, though 40% of moderates call themselves Independents, and only one-third say party labels tell me what I need to know about a politician. And you believe both parties are more ideological than the parties view themselves. One-quarter of moderates describe congressional Democrats as very liberal and two-fifth say congressional Republicans are very conservative.

You don’t blur complexities, but surface them. By an overwhelming 84-14% margin, moderates support universal background checks. But by a 58-40% margin, moderates say today’s gun laws are sufficient to keep me safe. By a 53-40% margin, moderates wish government was more involved in improving the economy. Yet by a 54-43% margin, moderates believe that when government gets involved in something it usually goes wrong. And three-quarters of moderates want to see the deficit reduced and spending on infrastructure increased. These aren’t contradictions; these are complexities – because the world is complicated and so is public policy.

In the context of this site, and sites like democrats.com, the term is used as an invective. It is considered an insult to be "Third Way", as it signifies one is not pure in their "progressiveness." The flip side would be the term (not often used here at DU) to refer to those in Occupy, Code Pink, and similar organizations as "the Professional Left" -- a term coined by Robert Gibbs when he was White House Press Secretary.
