Quote of the Day

Stanley B. Greenberg is a Democratic pollster who has written a New York Times article you should read. His polling finds voters not liking government and, associating Democrats with government, not liking them either. He says:

A crisis of government legitimacy is a crisis of liberalism. It doesn’t hurt Republicans. If government is seen as useless, what is the point of electing Democrats.

Greenberg makes sense; if you don't trust government, elect people (Republicans) who want less of it, who don't see it as the solution to all problems.
