We haven't reached the point where literally everyone thinks the government is too big. The Democrats are not without voters who support them. But those people are not a majority anymore. Most people think the government is plenty big as it is, thankyewverymuch, and they don't want any more of it.

A pretty good analysis, Nick. I agree with most of it. I think, though, that the leftest capture of all the OldDomiantLiberalMedia for the past 40 years, is quite important. People can only make judgements on the information that they have. The OldDomiantLiberalMedia has sheltered the leftists in our society for at least 40 years, killing unfavorable stories, acting as a cheerleader for ever more government and government programs, and filling the air waves with outright lies when it suits their agenda. They have competition now in the new media (talk radio, the internet, Fox, C-Span). Those information sources are a lot of the reason that those who think the government is too big are now a majority.

Looks like we will be watching even more of the Discover and History channels. Come to think of it that is about all we watch now.
