Conservatives Finish 2009 as No. 1 Ideological GroupUptick owing largely to more independents calling themselves conservative


PRINCETON, NJ -- The increased conservatism that Gallup first identified among Americans last June persisted throughout the year, so that the final year-end political ideology figures confirm Gallup's initial reporting: conservatives (40%) outnumbered both moderates (36%) and liberals (21%) across the nation in 2009.

Non-point.

Same could be said for liberals and independents.

Conservatives make up the largest affiliation.

Bring on 2010...:eusa_angel:
 
The problem with their poll is the main question. They ask how you would describe your political views? In some areas, I would call myself a conservative, in others a liberal. Personally I don't see any view point as moderate. I may be a fiscal conservative, but if a conservative candidate were against a woman's right to choice, I certainly wouldn't vote for them.

It will be interesting to see how the 2010 votes fall, but I don't think this poll will reflect on the results. I see the 2010 election being very anti-encumbant.

-TSO

If you go to the Gallup link, the graph showing under "Detailed Political Ideology Findings - 2000 - 2009, it clearly shows that the ultra conservatives (the ones making the most noise these days) haven't gained much traction at all.

And it still remains that the Republican Party is even less popular than the Democrats in poll after poll.

Emphasis mine.

So it may well come down to who the conservatives prefer in '10. Those that decided to give Obama the chance may not be quite so enthusiastic to hand congress to the democrats this time. Never hatchet your counts before they chicken.

True independents, the ones who actually vote, will not vote for an extremist, so I guess you'd better hope it's not someone like [ fill in blank ]. (I don't feel like getting shot down today.)

I fail to understand how the hell anyone can decide what a 'true independent' will or will not vote for. Independents are actually individuals, even if liberals are not.
 
Lets hope they all show up in coming elections. It's time to wave bye bye to the inept Socialists. We'll see i guess.

Oh, good grief! Now the lefties are gonna have to lump Gallup in with that other biased polling organization, Rasmussen.

My oh my, what a difference a year makes.
 
All polls that do not bow to their Hopey Changey One are mere biased "Outlier" Polls. lol! The Hopey Changeys are pretty funny at this point. :)

Well...when your President and Congress try to turn America into a eurotrash apologist state...what do you expect? :lol:
 
And also interesting to note that conservatives outnumber liberals by about 2 to 1.
