The numbers on the public option in the new WaPo/ABC poll (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/politics/polls/postpoll_101909.html) got all the press yesterday, but there’s other interesting stuff. For example, just 19 percent of the country trusts congressional Republicans to make good decisions:

Confidence in Obama is not sky-high, but confidence in the opposition is rock-bottom. By way of contrast, 37 percent of the population believes the US government has had secret contact with extra-terrestrials (http://www.cnn.com/US/9706/15/ufo.poll/).

The republicans are at 19% because they are hypocrits that don't stand for anything. They have been fiscal conservatives for all of about 6 months. They make great hecklers when they are in the cheapseats. They gave us Obama and the socialists because they were neocons, and not conservatives.

Wash Post / ABC are both left leaning and have predominantly a dem audience - right?

Otherwise we are sooooo.... screwed!
