Little Do They Know

Now I'm not in Europe right now, so I'm going to refrain from saying anything along the lines of "Americans are stupid" as some celebrities have done in the past, but this poll is almost hilarious to me.
Survey respondents also ranked the Illinois senator highest -- 65 percent -- when asked who would work with both parties to get things done, compared with 56 percent who say McCain would and 52 percent who say Clinton would.
Before I go into my analysis, please go ahead and catch your breath from laughing. I guess McCain doing legislation with such Democrats and former Dems as Russ Feingold and Joe Lieberman is meaningless when Barack can just deliver a powerful speech saying how he plans to work with Republicans to get all his hard-line leftist ideas to pass. If anything, McCain might face trouble getting the members of his own damn party to work with him.
Those surveyed also give the lowest marks -- 50 percent -- to McCain when asked if they'd be proud to have him as president. Clinton came in with 57 percent, and Obama garnered 62 percent.
Isn't it obvious that the impact of the presidency of another old white guy isn't going to exactly make certain demographics really proud?
