It tells us that we can be outspent, and the Republicans can outrageously lie in their ads, but so long as we have the right message (and we did), we will win.

A new DailyKos/SEIU/PPP poll finds that 49% of registered voters nationwide think Republicans are "intentionally stalling efforts to jumpstart the economy" to ensure President Obama's defeat for re-election. This is largely in line with a Washington Post/ABC News poll released in November that found 50% of Americans nationwide agree with the statement that President Obama is "making a good faith effort to deal with the country's economic problems, but the Republicans in Congress are playing politics by blocking his proposals." That's not exactly the sabotage question, but it's close. The problem of this election is whether the electorate will reward such treasonous action.

I got nothing today, how about you?
