Center-Right May Not be Right After All

In the past two weeks we have been bombarded by the overwhleming claim, which as bordered on a statement of fact, by the media that we are a center-right country. News media types have even gone as far as claiming that Obama himself is a conservative.

Media Matters is citing a poll that says otherwise:

Democracy Corps polled 2,000 voters November 4-5 and posed several questions as direct contrasts between a conservative approach and a progressive approach, some of which were directly drawn from the arguments made by Obama and McCain.

The results of the poll showed strong support from the public on the not-so-conservative politcies articulated by Obama.
