Doesn't that just say it all?

Quote of the Day: a pollster

by digby

E.J. Dionne asked a pollster friend of his if conservatives and liberals treated him differently when the polls didn't go their way:

“When you give conservatives bad news in your polls, they want to kill you,” he said. “When you give liberals bad news in your polls, they want to kill themselves.”

I react the same way...looking for a way to found out what are we doing wrong and not to make same mistakes...we learn from it.

Q. What's the difference between an Italian mother and a Jewish mother?
A. The Italian mother says, "If you don't eat all the food on your plate, I'll kill you." The Jewish mother says, "If you don't eat all the food on your plate, I'll kill myself."

But I think Obama is doing fine. I think a lot of Obama voters are worried, and that is a good thing because if they are worried they will volunteer.
