my Examiner column today, I argued that American voters are recoiling against the big government programs of the Obama administration and congressional Democrats. I noted particularly that Independent voters, who responded much more like Democrats than Republicans when George W. Bush was in the White House, are responding much more like Republicans than Democrats now that Obama is there.
I am pointed toward additional evidence for this last proposition by blogger Fred Bauer
The good news for Obama and the Democrats is that continue to be fewer voters identifying as Republicans than there were in the 2002 and 2004 cycle. The bad news for them is that they’re getting unpopular among the increased number of voters who identify as Independents.
