Poll: Majority of Americans Bitter, Clingy
Posted April 16, 2008 | 10:07 AM (EST)

(snip)

According to a new poll released today by Newsweek, 54 percent of likely voters in Pennsylvania describe themselves either as "bitter," "sometimes bitter" or "bitter most of the time."

Drilling down beneath those numbers, the results of the poll get even better for Obama, especially when the respondents answered the question, "When you are bitter, what do you cling to?"

According to the poll, 35 percent said they clung to "religion," 34 percent said they clung to "guns," while 28 percent said they clung to "antipathy towards people who are different from me."

Elsewhere, in a new effort to relate to voters, Sen. Hillary Clinton did five Jell-o shots at a bar in Pittsburgh.

2. Kinda underscores about how far out of touch Clinton is these days.

Both of them, for that matter.

6. Is this her moment?

Is this her "Don't know what a gallon of milk cost" moment? It doesn't surprise me that she thought this bitter mess could be used to her advantage. For someone who claims to have the pulse on America she is totally lost as to what ordinary folks are dealing with from day to day.
