#4 This analysis is way off base. The growing level of disapproval of the other party's candidate is reflective of the breakdown in the social consensus about the blue social model and the progressive New Deal that spawned it. More and more people are realizing the emperor has not clothes and more and more politicians are willing to say so. This will continue until there is a major change in the social model the country operates under. Unfortunately I don't expect that to happen until after some event shakes everyone out of their me, me, me stupor. My current favorite is the collapse of the dollar and resulting hyperinflation. Especially if Barry is re-elected. |
