If Conservatives Outnumber Liberals . . .

How Did Obama Get Elected?

I have been saying for a while that I believe this is a center-right nation. Gallup seems to agree. Americans trust themselves more than they trust the government, and the idea that we should be personally responsible for our own actions seems to resonate among Americans. If this is the case, then how is it that an extreme leftist liberal like Barry Hussein Obama, who is following the ten planks of communism to the letter, made it into the White House?

A large part of it was the media convincing moderates and undecideds that Obama wasn't the Marxist that conservatives recognized him to be.

I got the opportunity to listen to Rush Limbaugh yesterday (a rare treat for me, indeed), and he had an interesting piece that I found fascinating about how, as the economy is failing, recessionary times deepen, and a depression looms on the horizon, the media is acting like things are becoming rosy, and the great Obama has saved us from certain economic doom.
