RE: The deciding factor wasn`t the hispanic vote... it was the sharp national turn to the political left. Under no realistic notion can we consider America a center-right country ever again

It looks like we should take Gallup and its polls with a grain of salt in the future. Not only were they VERY INACCURATE in their polls in November 2012, their poll just 10 months earlier gave us this:

TITLE:
Gallup poll: Conservatives outnumber liberals
EXCERPT:
________________________________
Conservatives continue to make up the largest segment of political views in the country, outnumbering liberals nearly two-to-one, according to a new poll Thursday.
The Gallup survey found that 40 percent of Americans consider themselves conservative; 35 percent consider themselves moderate; and 21 percent see themselves as liberal. The figures did not change from 2010.
For the third straight year, conservatives outnumbered both moderates and liberals.
Conservatives began outstripping moderates in 2008, and the percentage of moderates has declined steadily over the past two decades, from 43 percent 1992 to 35 percent in 2011.

Can we believe Gallup’s above poll early January 2012?
If as the Gallup poll tells us Conservatives in this country are TWICE the number of Liberals, then something must have happened in just 10 months to either:
* Cause Conservatives to decrease
* Cause Liberals to increase
* Cause moderates to turn left.
Or maybe the Gallup poll was just total garbage.
The Gallup poll didn`t sort out the liars among the group surveyed. Some who claimed to be “conservative and “moderate”...weren`t.
Liberalism rules the political orientation in this country now. The sheep caught on to the fact self-directed prosperity is too much work when a plethora of freebies is there for the taking.
