>that means the Dems will have more freedom to indulge in whims of the fringe left within of their own party. Like me! Unfortunately, I don't share your optimism :( -Z

Right now, we're in a wild pendulum swing from far right with Bush/Cheney, to left of center with Obama/Biden, but if the GOP implodes, then I can see the Dems taking the party much further left Where the hell have you been the last year? We've been to the far extremes of the Left, and the COUNTRY is now moving back toward the center. Have you totally MISSED the recent elections (including the one coming up this week)?

New poll shows majorities don't want Palin to run politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com Sarah Palin attracted huge crowds across the country last fall as she promoted her best-selling memoir, but a new survey suggests an overwhelming number of Americans don't want the former Alaska governor to run for president. According to a new CBS News poll out Tuesday, 71 percent are against the former Republican vice presidential candidate launching her own bid for the White House in two years while 21 percent are in favor of a potential run. Broken down by party, 56 percent of Republicans are against a potential Palin presidential campaign while 30 percent are for it. Meanwhile, the vast majority of Democrats, 88 percent, are not in favor of a Palin presidential run. The survey also finds significantly more people view Palin negatively than positively: 41 percent negative compared to 26 percent positive.
