Out Of Touch, Ctd
John Sides throws a few handfuls of salt at that PPP poll. Sager tries to understand what the poll means:
Both 2000 and 2004 were close enough to justify some amount of
paranoia. Now, perhaps, the Republicans are paying back the Democratic
conspiracy mongering of the last decade with their own childishness.
ACORN is the GOP’s Diebold, maybe. “Barack Obama is illegitimate,” is
the Republicans’ version of “George W. Bush is going to suspend
elections in 2008 and seize power as a dictator.” The difference,
though, would seem to be how widespread this stuff is. I haven’t seen
good polling on how many Democrats bought into the crazier theories
during the Bush years, but it couldn’t possibly have been this
widespread. Could it have?
