The Autumn of the Left
By Bruce Walker

It's well worth reading in its entirety, just click the linked title here, but the very first paragraph boggled my mind.

"According to Battleground Poll results over the last ten years, conservatives are about sixty percent of the population, liberals are roughly thirty-five percent, and all the others -- moderate, don't know, and refused to answer -- are consistently about five percent."

60 - 35 - 5

That amazed me; I guess I never looked into the exact numbers before. I always thought that there were a lot more liberals. Maybe it's just that conservatives follow the rules and only vote once, and quit voting when they die.
