not mostly democrats on DU who disapprove of him it's non-democratic progressives who do. They are not necessarily democrats, though at times they might have voted democratic, but many of them are the folks who helped bring about GW Bush by voting for Nader because they thought that Al Gore wasn't progressive enough.

83% of liberal democrats are hypocritical Kool-Aid swillers. If you are anti-war, then O'Bomba's a deal breaker. End. of. story.

But, in all seriousness, liberals are now increasingly identifying themselves as independents, not Democrats.

"83% of all liberal Democrats" is a much smaller number than "83% of all liberals." It's a very misleading statistic.
