That’s pure unadulterated fantasy right there. Honest estimates place conservatives at around 20%. The vast, and I mean vast majority of Americans are apolitical. Liberals, conservatives and moderates combined wouldn’t make up 50% of the population, let alone 60%.
"Conservatives" Are Single-Largest Ideological Group
PRINCETON, NJ -- Thus far in 2009, 40% of Americans interviewed in national Gallup Poll surveys describe their political views as conservative, 35% as moderate, and 21% as liberal. This represents a slight increase for conservatism in the U.S. since 2008, returning it to a level last seen in 2004. The 21% calling themselves liberal is in line with findings throughout this decade, but is up from the 1990s.
So if 40% are conservative, and half the moderates are actually conservative, Gallup says almost 60%.
Not a fantasy. Reality.
