Gallup reports in a newly published poll that the percentage of Americans who consider the Democratic party “too liberal” is on the rise.
Quoting Gallup: “Most major demographic and attitudinal subgroups show at least a slight uptick since 2008 in perceptions that the Democratic Party is too liberal. The increasing perception of the Democrats as too far left comes as President Obama and the Democrats in Congress have expanded the government’s role in the economy to address the economic problems facing the country. Additionally, the government is working toward major healthcare reform legislation and strengthening environmental regulations.”
One can only hope that this poll shows the winds of change are blowing in the right direction. Remember, as de Tocqueville said, “The American Republic will endure until the politicians realize that they can bribe the people with their own money.”
