Uh-oh. A new ABC/Washington Post poll says that 57% of American adults answered “Some” or “None” when asked how much confidence they had that Barack Obama would make the right decisions for the nation’s future.

( huh? say what?) ;-)
Or... many old D's are becoming new I's and many old I's are becoming new R's... that would be a more simple explanation! This is a mass shift RIGHT...
A liberal switches to conservativism slowly, often after getting mugged. The mugging has been in slo-mo for almost two years now...
