Stupid is as stupid does.

[bethtopaz]

This stupid, lazy, godless nation now have their stupid, lazy and godless president.

[bdeaner]

Damn idiots. I wonder how the McCain-Palin voters would do on the same survey. Did they look only at Obama supporters?

[FlingWingFlyer]

The dumbing down of America by the DemocRATS and their “teachers” unions appears to have worked.

[trtdenver]

gosh, you could knock me over with a feather.

[Doofer]

Survey finds most Obama voters remembered negative coverage of McCain/Palin statements but struggled to correctly answer questions about coverage associated with Obama/Biden.

Goes to show that the negative advertising given free to the Obama campaign by the MSM worked.

[TennTuxedo]

This tells me that the GOP has to find a better way to get their message out to the public.

Anyone have the cash to buy a TV network?

[loreldan]

"57% of Obama voters were unable to correctly answer that Democrats controlled both the House and the Senate."

...And they thought they were voting for change. Unbelievable. Congress' approval rating is what, 19%? And America voted for more of the controlling party. This poll explains it.

Here's video:

The people in that video were probably more intelligent than most who voted — or at least fairly well spoken. We’ve heard the ‘man on the street’ idiots, and the Sterns interviews. Brains are not an issue -— especially for those who wish power.

We are in trouble.

I was in line at Wal*Mart and an Obamaton was blathering on about the lower oil prices are because Bush was going out of office and he couldn't manipulate the market anymore with his oil buddies. These people are hopeless. All commodities are going down but these people are much too dull to even comprehend that.

[adorno]

Stupid is as stupid does.

Yeah, but the party of stupid, WINS!

Meanwhile, the party of smarties, LOSES!

The stupid party gets to set the agenda and to run (or should I say, ruin) the country.

The party of smarties gets to lick their wounds and cry foul and call the party that won, "stupid". The party of dummies gets to call us, "losers".

Nice guys do finish last!

[PISANO]

The ignorance of the electorate is a direct result of the where they obtain their news and what the MSM reports.

The ONLY LINE OF DEFENSE that exists against a TOTAL ONE PARTY RULE of the Federal Government is the 4th estate.

As we can see from this poll and previous interviews the alternative news media and the MSM are completely in the back pocket of OBAMA.

There are absolutely NO checks and balances, something that could NEVER happen if the GOP were in charge.

Our nation COULD BE in serious peril!

[lonestar]

So.....what’s new????

[TChad]

The poll questions, taken from http://www.zogby.com/news/wf-dfs.pdf

: 200. Before this past election, which political party controlled both houses of congress?
201. Which candidate could not say how many houses they own?
202. Which candidate said they could see Russia from their house?
203. Which candidate had to quit a previous political campaign because they were found to have plagiarized a speech?
204. Which candidate won their first election by getting all of their opponents kicked off the ballot?
205. Which candidate wore clothes that their political party reportedly spent $150,000 on?
206. Which candidate currently has a pregnant teenage daughter?
207. Which candidate said that Obama would be tested in his first six months as president by a generated international crisis?
208. Which candidate claimed to have campaigned in 57 states?
209. Which candidate said their policies would likely bankrupt the coal industry and make energy rates skyrocket?
210. Which candidate said that the government should redistribute the wealth?
211. Which candidate started their political career at the home of two former members of the Weather Underground?

I got all 12, as I am sure most FReepers would.

IMHO, the issue is how to fight the MSM and get the message out to the people. Clearly when the Obamanation outspent us 10:1 and had $600M to dole out to his buddies in the MSM we are at a serious disadvantage. I can imagine the discussions: “hey NBC, give us favorable coverage or we spend our ad $$ at ABC”.

Many Repubs reaction is to not fight them, give in and hope to get a better deal from the MSM. Hey, we might get a few wins in the short term, but forget about our Republic.

So if you are at the highest levels of the RNC you better be thinking about:

1. Better ways to deliver the message including alternative media including the Internet

2. Revamp and re-energize the GOTV efforts

3. Raise more $$, scrap this idea of limiting campaign contributions and spending

4. Start long term projects to get to the youth in the schools. Find a way to make Conservatism “cool” and “hip” and to “feel good”, because that is what our schools are churning out.

5. Energize and organize Conservatives to get out a deliver the message. This is very hard because most of us just want to be left alone and not get out there. We must.

The left can be defeated, because they have no real solutions, they will over reach and fail badly. Conservatism works, but must be “sold” more effectively.

Wish he would have done a similar poll for McCain voters. Or did he and I missed it?
