The new Washington Post/Bloomberg poll proves that Americans -- even Republican voters -- support liberal economic policies.
More than two-thirds of Americans, including a majority of Republicans, say wealthier people should pay more in taxes to bring down the budget deficit, and even larger numbers think Medicare and Social Security benefits should be left alone.
So naturally many of these people will vote for a Republican presidential candidate who is opposed to all of this.
Why?
Too many Americans are dumbstupids.
