9 out of 10 w* voters don't know who Rove is, never heard of Plame
or Joe Wilson - they don't get it, don't care, and - if * says they are good men - dog gonnit - they are good men.

If this was concerning a cigar and dress? Then they'd know.

(the 90% statistic is from very unscientific research at my office)

3. Not surprised
This story is not going to go away as there is a Grand Jury Inquiry going on. Watergate wasn't topic number one when it happened and Nixon even got overwhelmingly re-elected in 1972.

By 1974, Nixon was forced to resign. Just because there are people who don't know about it todya, doesn't mean it won't grow. We are talking about harming the security interests of the USA and placing the need to carry out a political vendetta over these security concerns.

Give it time.

5. * voters tend to avoid reality at all costs...
They don't know too much and don't want to know too much. It's easier to live in right-wing fantasyland when you're not bothered by the reality thing.

:shrug:

6. This is obviously your statement and totally untrue
This is in the newspapers and on every station on TV. This story continues to grow. It is the main question at the WH press conference 2 days running.

8. Talk to them about Jeff Gannon. Gay Hooker's White-House Sleep-overs
Conservatives love to hear about anything that might involve anal sex.

9. You have to be stupid
and completely uninformed not to realize these people are evil crooked bastards! I am at peak outrage and have been for 4 years. What is it gonna take for people to wake up? I don't wish ill toward our country and its laws but I don't want these freaks to destroy us so I can say I told you so.

10. Why pay attention to things that make you look bad?
This way once it all blows up in the administrations face they can claim that it was one big witch hunt against them.

Most of my family is Republican and I know that none of them know about Rove. If it isn't talked about on Fox News, TBN, or in the sermon at church they don't know about it.

11. Here's another illuminating thing to do with * voters: ask how many
of the presidential debates they watched.

Most that I've asked that didn't watch ANY of them, and I haven't met ONE * voter who watched ALL of them.

Incredible!
