From the 2012 exit poll:

******************

* Obamacare. Only 44 percent of Americans said they believe the program should be expanded or left as it is. Almost a full majority — 49 percent — said they wanted the program fully repealed or partially repealed.

* Income tax rates. Only 13 percent of Americans said they favored raising income tax rates for all citizens. And the suggestion that those earning over $250,000 a year — the benchmark the president uses to describe the so-called “rich” — should be taxed more received the support of 47 percent of the electorate. With all the media spin, one would think that view would have enjoyed majority support. It didn’t.

* When asked if “taxes should be raised to help cut the budget deficit,” only 33 percent of the voters agreed, with a strong majority of 63 percent saying no more taxes.

* The role of government. Asked the all-important question of whether government should do more or less in people’s lives, American voters strongly favored less government.

When respondents were asked if “government should do more to solve problems,” only 43 percent of voters agreed.

But 51 percent of voters agreed with the statement that “government is doing too many things better left to businesses and individuals.” Nothing better demonstrates that America rejects Obama’s statist policies and that the country remains a center-right nation.

What happened to the 70% who rejected it during the early daze of the TEA Party?

The Under 30’s are utterly ambivalent on any issue of consequence, and they are constantly spoon-fed personalized propaganda via Twitter and social media.

It’s nearly Game Over, I’m afraid.
