political class in washington doesn t understand, there was an argument in politico, the government gets a pass. huh-uh. on saturday, people are so far away, so much further than the political class, but take that rasmussen number. the stunning number, subnumber in that. among people who on the rasmussen index classify as mainstream america, 69% of them oppose this. among the people in the political class, the 18 or 20%, 71 are in favor. that is 101-point difference and yet everything we hear from washington okay, we re seeing a breakdown politically and you can see it in the alliances,y you have dianne feinstein with sack by chambliss, and mccain saying this is wonderful, good.
