What world are these people living in?  Are they not aware of ClusterFox? Christine O’Donnell, Marco Rubio, Sharron Angle, Joe Miller… and the Tea Party?

This result comes from The Hill 2010 Midterm Election Poll, which found that 44 percent of likely voters say the Democratic Party is more dominated by its extreme elements, whereas 37 percent say it’s the Republican Party that is more dominated by extremists.[...]

[I]t suggests problems for a Democratic Party seen as too liberal. [...]

The revelations in a survey of 10 toss-up congressional districts across the country point to problems for Democrats, who are trying to motivate a disillusioned base and appeal to independents moving to the GOP ahead of the Nov. 2 election. [...]
