Palin, W and the "27 Percenters"...

NBC and The Wall Street Journal have a poll out that shows George W. Bush and Sarah Palin are liked by the same percentage of Americans. Shocker, right?

The Quitter:
Very Negative/Somewhat Negative – 43%
Neutral – 24%
Very Positive/Somewhat Positive – 29%

The Decider:
Very Negative/Somewhat Negative – 50%
Neutral – 21%
Very Positive/Somewhat Positive – 29%


We believe it isn't just the same percentage of Americans who like both Palin and W. We believe it's actually the same people. Who are these Americans? Are they retarded? Well...they're 27-pecenters:

"27 Percenters: those Americans who will predictably vote against their own best interests. In his seminal post on the Crazification Factor, John Rogers used the 2004 Obama/Keyes senate race as a measure: “Keyes was from out of state, so you can eliminate any established political base; both candidates were black, so you can factor out racism; and Keyes was plainly, obviously, completely crazy. Batshit crazy. Head-trauma crazy. But 27% of the population of Illinois voted for him. They put party identification, personal prejudice, whatever ahead of rational judgement. Hell, even like 5% of Democrats voted for him. That’s crazy behaviour. I think you have to assume a 27% Crazification Factor in any population.”


But as Firedoglake points out:

Adolf Hussein Obamastalin’s numbers are 47 positive/40 negative – meaning he’s 60% more popular than both The Quitter and The Decider.

Why does Real America hate America?
