#1 That's telling. It seems about 30% of voters will vote for the stupidest thing on the ballot, even if that is having their nuts slowly crushed in a vice.

This, of course, means that the true "100%" is about 70% because those are the ones with enough brains to choose to not have their nuts crushed.

Apparently, we are at the 65% mark, which translates to something more like 93% of people with brains think we are headed the wrong direction.

#2 The other 35% realize how far it's gone and choose discretion over valor?

#3 30% are gov't employees, lobbyists or other rent-seekers.

Of course some of those "wrong track" people think that we need to move much farther left.

#4 Somebody should tell Iran Press TV that the wrong track includes not nuking Iran.
