See, pc, your partisanship is so severe, you assume others are as partisan as you are.

When I say the rational 80 percenters ... I didn't lay claim that that figure was dedicated to supporters of Barack Obama. But as usual, my Right Wing Propellerites choose to argue with what I DON'T say. (Y'all do this so consistently, I've often wondered if y'all aren't carrying on some simultaneous conversation in a different dimension.)
Look, pc - in my mind, I was loosely breaking it down this way:
10 percenters Right, ... Rush Limbaugh ditto heads, GW lovers.
10 percenters Left, ... the Kumbayahers, Truthers.
40 percent mainstream Right.
40 percent mainstream Left.
.....
I consider myself 40 percent mainstream left. That's because of my history of voting Republican. In fact, as I've often mentioned, I was hoping that John McCain was nominated in 2000. I would happily have voted for him then. I saw him as being someone who could save the Republican Party from self destruction.
It is true that, since Newt Gingrich redefined the Modern Republican party, I've found very little reason to vote Republican. But I would LIKE to. I try to vote for the person, not the party. But look, many Modern Republicans actually FLAUNT their Moral Vacancy with their persistent support for defrocked economic theories such as Trickle Down economics.
What you call lemmings are the Rational 80 percent ... the centrist left, who weighed Obama and supported him ... and the centrist right, who recognized that the extreme lazzaie faire of the Modern Republican simply cannot be reconciled with a global marketplace.
