I don't trust politicians' post-election pronouncements of what the "American People" want, or have said, in this year's voting.

There's really only one way to really know... Ask them directly.

The Columbia Journal Review extracted points from CNN's exit polls:

  1. Most voters don’t want the health care bill repealed and
  2. A majority of supporters would like to see it expanded.
  3. 2/3 expressed false beliefs about the stimulus package.
  4. 52% said that Obama’s policies would “hurt the country," but
  5. 61% of voters said they weren’t voting in opposition to Obama.
  6. 23% of Republican voters disliked the Republican party.
Perhaps the politicians are also wrong when inferring a conveniently self-serving mandate... As the voters were in their evaluation of the stimulus, which opponents of the president made a new dirty word.
