I heard Gayle King mention this group on her XM Radio show the other day. Don't know who's behind the movement, but I like their manifesto:

We are no labels.
We care deeply about our country.
We are frustrated and concerned about the tone of politics.
We are passionate about addressing America?s challenges.
We are Democrats, Republicans and Independents.
Most importantly we are Americans.
We believe hyper-partisanship is destroying our politics and paralyzing our ability to govern.
We may disagree on issues, but we do so with civility and mutual respect.
We believe in the vital center ? a place where ideas are judged on their merits.
We believe together we can make the future better and brighter ? and give us what we all deserve ? a government and a political system that works ? one driven by common purpose and common sense.
We believe our politics can change.
So that Washington will work together and produce results.
The consequences of inaction have never been greater because the issues we face have never been more more serious, more complicated, or more dangerous.
And yet we have a crisis of governance.
And this crisis should compel us to work together, without labels, to move America forward.
A promising future still calls.
But requires No Labels.

We will be launching an online forum and
holding a gathering of like-minded people in the winter of 2010.

Although the concepts is awesome, you will have to call it something so people will belong to it. IMO

Didn't take long for the need for a new label or the offering of one. :lol:

Labels are fine for products but not for people.

We are meat popsicles. We are serfs of corporate america. Our flag is pretty, and the music is good!

I thought it was interesting how people had to handle Prince when he changed his name to a sign. Without a name or a label, we don't know how to handle each other nor how to respond.:D

Hi. I'm Alicia, formerly know as the artist aleonard.:wave:

There appears to be a facebook group: Hardcore Moderate | Facebook
"For those who think that being politically knowledgeable means you don't just align with Republicans or Democrats."

So why is No Labels waiting until winter 2010 to launch itself? .... gathering forces, ideas, members and then doing a sort of "Grand launching"?
