Apparently, the progressive view that Obama is a centrist - or, worse, a Republican in DINO clothing - is a fringe view among Americans.
A new Gallup Poll reports that 51% of Americans believe that President Obama's political views are "too liberal"
Who could have guessed...
But take heart, internet progressives!
47% also say they agree with him on the issues they care about.
So, here is the calculation in a nut shell:
A majority of Americans (rightly or wrongly) think Obama is very liberal.
But a plurality agree with this "very liberal" president's views.
Ergo, a plurality of Americans believe they support very liberal policies.
I call that a win.
