Conservatives Maintain Edge as Top Ideological Group
The chart gives a good illustration of where the lefties on this board fit in. The 20% fringe.

PRINCETON, NJ -- Conservatives continue to outnumber moderates and liberals in the American populace in 2009, confirming a finding that Gallup first noted in June. Forty percent of Americans describe their political views as conservative, 36% as moderate, and 20% as liberal. This marks a shift from 2005 through 2008, when moderates were tied with conservatives as the most prevalent group
Americans are more likely to consider themselves conservative this year than they were in 2008, resulting in conservatives -- now 40% of the American public -- outnumbering moderates for the first time since 2004.
All of this has potentially important implications at the ballot box, particularly for the 2010 midterm elections.

Thank you obama and the liberals for overreaching and creating an insurgent conservatism.
