The analysis by GOP pollster Bill McInturff, who looked at survey data from 2010 to 2015, found that the biggest ideological shifts came among women, young people, Latinos and well-educated voters, as well as people in the West and in cities.
My instant punditry says this article is a plant by GOP-E types who want to instantly dismiss the grass roots conservatives who do not want a liberal Republican as the nominee.
Yet I still intend to vote for Ted and don’t really care what the cool kids think.
Hell, I’m liberal. I’ll ask someone what the hell they are doing in my yard at night and wait for a good answer before I shoot.
Yeah, until it all collapses and they start starving because of no more sucrose from “Uncle Sugar”.
women, young people, Latinos and well-educated voters, as well as people in the West and in cities.///
women want to be taken care of and also care about kids that they didn’t have. It is the nurture side, but it is misdirected
Latinos want free everything and want to be the majority.
well educated voters means spoiled kids who went to college, which also accounts for the youth vote.
Us silly middle aged and older white men need to die, according to Oprah, and probably a lot more people on the left.
I’ll never get over how white women filled the seats to see a black talk show host who said their parents need to die.
If 26% of registered voters identified themselves as liberals, 74% did not, so how did Obama manage to win two elections? I'd suggest the poll means most people don't understand what a "liberal" or a "conservative" is. (What, exactly, is a "moderate"????)
When you ask them particulars, huge numbers of them disagree strongly with most of the leftist agenda.
Satan is making a big comeback too.
That’s fine, but how do they vote? Just read an article a couple of days ago on how recent elections down ticket forebodes dismal days for Democrats (liberals) ahead. No bench strength which is why there’s a has been carpet bagger, an avowed socialist, a rain water revenuer and someone who’s platform is based on converting the US to the metric system. Seems State offices and local offices down to the local dog catcher have been overwhelmingly R for the last 8 years. How many R Govs and State Legislature majorities are there? Definitely a plant article by the GOPe.

Not at all surprised. Seeing this analysis everywhere and it’s fairly obvious. While there are many reasons for it the biggest is that there is no Conservative Leader getting out the message. And before a few of you tell me that your favorite IS one, there is a big difference in someone who says something you like and one who leads beyond his core base (a la Reagan).
We are in trouble. America is in trouble. And until a real Leader emerges and teaches the value of Conservatism (and just doesn’t toss around platitudes) the end is coming, and right soon.
...and I hear that it's making a comeback!
I think they are confusing the drop in Republicans versus the drop in conservatives. Note the increase in independents.
These are the same polls that have been absolutely wrong over the last Conservative wins.
Pray America is waking
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?
