  • Is America Waking Up?

    Is America waking up?

    Possibly. A string or recent polling data suggests that most Americans are becoming increasingly alarmed by Washington's hard turn to the left.

    The NBC/Wall Street Journal poll found that independent voters are those who appear most alarmed at present. In April, 46% of independents identified President Obama as [...]
