Z, It had to do with a stance on crime. That's it.

Well, that's almost it. It's hard to find a true liberal who is also tough on crime, you know, because liberalism has traditionally viewed criminals as victims of society.

Here is the bottom line. It's obvious your buddy considered crime and public safety to be his number one issue. Things like gay marriage, universal health care, taxes, etc., mean nothing to him if he can't walk down Times Square and feel safe. Or for that matter the Financial District, home of Ground Zero. To him, being "liberal" meant being soft on crime and perhaps soft on terrorism as well.

Ask me later if you want to know how this relates to leadership, or the lack thereof.
