Check out
this Gallup poll result which shows that Americans are moving to the Right, politically. Gallup summarizes their findings as follows:
Despite the results of the 2008 presidential election, Americans, by a 2-to-1 margin, say their political views in recent years have become more conservative rather than more liberal, 39% to 18%, with 42% saying they have not changed.
And they note:
These findings, from a June 14-17 Gallup Poll, somewhat conform to Gallup's annual trends on Americans' self-defined political ideology. Thus far in 2009 (from January through May), 40% of Americans call themselves conservative, up from 37% in 2007 and 2008, and the highest level since 2004.
Take a moment for some good news for
conservatives; maybe we do have a fighting chance in 2012.
