if conservatives are 20-25% of the populace

LOL. And you wonder why folks think you're left of center... <g>

If a 34% of the voters consider themselves conservative...(http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2004/pages/results/states/US/P/00/epolls.0.html)

"45 percent of self-described conservatives disapprove of president"
(http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/12643666/)

and 45 percent of those want a new direction, then we're talking about 16% of population, which is about a quarter of the disaffected. I had guessed a third. Guess not, but it's sure a whole lot more than your "10-12% tops (being generous)."
