Not at all surprising as the Republicans, once they regained control, exposed their radical corporate agenda.

But the poll assumptions--that Americans should merely have a choice between a wing-nut and "brand Obama"--are faulty.

These polls would have much more meaning if they also measured Obama's policy positions on "issues" as against the positions of progressives like Nader, Kucinich, Bernie Sanders.

The "referendum" was against reich wing democrats.
Best thing that ever happened to the democrats was getting rid of 60 Reich wing nutbags masquerading as democrats.

Man, The Machine is playing the American people with virtuoso sensitivity, sort of the way Yo-Yo Ma strokes his cello. I can't believe the people can't see that it's just the old good cop/bad cop (I much prefer BartCop) routine, cramming more fascism down their ignorant gullets under the guise of democracy. The lesser of two evils? Not for this expat, thank you! Evil is evil, QED! (Hint: Life is mighty nice in Free Europe - come on over while they still let you leave!)

The righties are in trouble, as California goes, so goes the nation.

Yeah Ernie, reducing taxes and reducing spending is REALLY radical.

38% of voters in this country would actually put Palin in the White House?

We've got work to do if we ever want to bring back respect for intelligence and problem-solving in this country.

Ooooh, what a scoop, Brad! Who gives a shit who's President and what these retarded polls say? Either way, you'll be getting a corporatist.

Keep voting for the mainstream Democrats and Republicans, idiots.
