A country in shambles, under GOP rule

Efforts to blame Democrats for the country's deep woes assume deep stupidity on the part of the glorified Regular Voter.

    @Iokannan

    Palin's Alaska popularity might be in for more adjustment.

    When she was running for governor it was as a reform minded Repub, not as a radical RW'er. She wasn't all folksy (embarassing) and she ran on getting more for her state. Her religion wasn't an issue.

    She's presenting another picture to them now.

    I'd be interested in seeing her most recent numbers, because even the 68% was before the flubs, etc.
