There’s a lot of good news for Democrats buried in the details of today’s CBS/New York Times poll, which you can read here (PDF).
No, it’s not just the approval rating (this poll also puts Bush at 31%).
It’s things like this:
"Do you think the Republican party or the Democratic party comes closer to sharing your moral values?"
Republican party: 37%.
Democrat party: 50%.
So, the Democrats have become the party of morality. Heh.
I suppose there’s two ways of looking at this — (1) America has gone to the dogs; or (2) America is coming to its senses. I go with (2).
