I see a Centrist as someone who is willing to look at both sides but very well may side far left or far right on any given issue; and yes down the middle on others.
It's not someone who is always in the Centre.

I’m a centrist. I am rarely directly in the middle of two opposing points, but I am even more rarely on either extreme. I would typically lean one way or another way depending on the issue, while not going completely all the way to the edge.

Take minimum wage. Should it stay at $7.25/hr? Heck no. Way too low.

Should it immediately double to $15? Heck no. Way too big of step jump.

My position is somewhere in the middle.
