Is the Bush legacy creating dividends for Democrats already?

The new AP-Ipsos poll has a fascinating number. Respondents were asked they identified as Democrats, Republicans or independents, and then independents were asked which way they lean. With leaners, 54% of Americans are Democrats, compared to only 36% Republicans — an almost 20-point Dem margin.

    Let’s hope our Democratic Congress doesn’t fuck this up for us. Here’s a tip: they could show some cojones.

    Wow, that’s a lot of people full of pure Bush-hatred and absolutely nothing else.

    Clearly most of these people aren’t aware that Robert Byrd was in the KKK. Maybe if good people like Dugger and Frank did more to advertise that fact, these numbers would be different. Get to work, boys!

    Bush IS the face of the Repub party. He is the end product of decades of Repub ideologies. If you could clone the Repub party in order to make one man in that party’s image, that man would be George W. Bush. He’s their bastard. That’s why there are the dead ender 28 percenters who are absent the ability to reason, who still worship at Bush’s feet.
    This is why Americans reject the Repub party. The Democratic sure isn’t perfect, but they are not diabolically evil the way the Repubs are.
