Bad Numbers
I saw this over at HuffPost---the new Pew Research Poll:
At a time when the Republican Party’s image is at a historic low, 62% of the public says the GOP is out of touch with the American people, 56% think it is not open to change and 52% say the party is too extreme.
Opinions about the Democratic Party are mixed, but the party is viewed more positively than the GOP in every dimension tested except one. Somewhat more say the Republican Party than the Democratic Party has strong principles (63% vs. 57%).....
The old white guys of the Republican Party haven't been able to understand that their views on women, immigrants, college students, Social Security, minorities, the middle class, and the poor, are clearly tied to some ancient, Neanderthal beliefs.
