Why are Americans reacting to Obamaism like a Michelin Guide critic faced with a plate of Seven Eleven nachos? Is it because :
- They spent three generations fighting Marxist regimes and have no desire to join one now.
- They read the price tag on Mr Barack Hussein Obama's plans and would rather have freedom than lumber their grandchildren with crippling debt and a nascent police state.
- They remember how Mr Tony Blair ended up with him re-elected time and again under the excuse that he needed more time only to leave behind a shattered union ruled over by a repellent one-eyed Scotsman and they've no desire for an American road tour.
- They're too stupid to understand how oppressed they are or how Mr Obama will liberate them from the human condition and give them each a pony FOR FREE!
If you chose 4, congratulations. You just got a job with the BBC.

Given the headline of the article I would have expected the story to go the opposite way. Wishful thinking I suppose.
I read something in a comments section of either the Times or Sky News yesterday posing a question that I had thought about as well, why do the commenters demonstrate far more common sense in the UK than the elected officials?
As to the premise in the article that "stories convince voters rather than facts", I'm guessing they don't mean about Global Warming.
