Poll: Democrats more extreme than Republicans

A new poll out, from The Hill, indicates that voters are more likely to see Democrats as extreme than Republicans. Who knew? How about all the Tea Part faithful who love the Constitution and the rule of law etc.?  Pretty sure they knew.

Likely voters in battleground districts see extremists as having a more dominant influence over the Democratic Party than they do over the GOP.

This result comes from The Hill 2010 Midterm Election Poll, which found that 44 percent of likely voters say the Democratic Party is more dominated by its extreme elements, whereas 37 percent say it’s the Republican Party that is more dominated by extremists.

The revelations in a survey of 10 toss-up congressional districts across the country point to problems for Democrats, who are trying to motivate a disillusioned base and appeal to independents moving to the GOP ahead of the Nov. 2 election.

For Democrats, reality bites (hard).
