I too would have to join Gutenberg's party. In forms that have a field for political beliefs, I usually enter "Raging Pragmatist". I am registered as an independent / decline to state.
I'd say I vote for the Democratic candidate about 80% of the time. I've voted for independent candidates in the past, but the only Republican I can recall voting for was Arnold in the last gubernatorial election against the completely useless Phil Angelides. I have often voted against the Democratically-endorsed measures that litter my state and local ballots, though: I don't rubber stamp every bond measure they try to get passed, that's for sure.
