I agree with what you say, but we should also be very careful of expressions like "center right".

If we have issues where the vast majority of the people agree, that should by definition be the center. However, quite clearly that's not how the words are used. Instead, mass media and politicians always refer to everything in reference to the two-party system, when representatives of both parties are actually way off in the fringes, at least some of the time, on issues like these.
