There are signs that liberals are making a comeback — and not just because a socialist is running for president, gay marriage is spreading like wildfire and pot legalization is gaining acceptance.
A new analysis of Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll data finds a marked increase in the share of registered voters identifying themselves as liberals, and an even bigger drop in the share saying they are conservatives.
In three national polls conducted so far in 2015, the analysis found that 26% of registered voters identified themselves as liberals — up from 23% in 2014. At the same time, the share of voters identifying as conservatives dropped to 33% from 37% in 2014.

> Conservatives are far more liberal in the traditional sense than so called liberals.
I tend to agree with that. What we have right now are not really liberals. They are “Constitution enemies” plain and simple.
“Yet I still intend to vote for Ted and don’t really care what the cool kids think.”
Me, too.
My opinion of polling is that it appears to combine the reading of entrails and astrology. I for one, a conservative, NEVER ANSWER ANY POLL, telling them to SHUT UP and GO AWAY!
The latest British election in May, had the election too close to call right as the vote was taken. The results were anything but as the liberal Labour Party got TROUNCED, along with ALL OF THE POLLS!
This GUESSTIMATE is different - HOW?
Liberals love government until it takes an ID to vote.
Then it becomes a “problem”.
It bears repeating.....again and again
A big problem is the best thing the liberals have going is the feckless republicans. When elected they cant govern, they betray their voters, They gave Obama everything he wants and they are eunuchs on oversight. That are granting him secret new powers to use against the people in the trade deal. I have always detested the Commies but I am learning to hate the republican frauds even more.
Healthcare and education = $$$$
Well one can’t really be a social liberal and an economic conservtive, because the social liberal programs break the bank.
This vote for Obama-trade though, I think, will make it impossible for Cruz to make much headway. His supporters will scatter to three or four other candidates. Many probably to Paul or possibly Santorum.
Yes, aren’t Republican primary voters the bunk!
