Conservatives have maintained their leading position among U.S. ideological groups in the first half of 2010. Gallup finds 42% of Americans describing themselves as either very conservative or conservative. This is up slightly from the 40% seen for all of 2009 and contrasts with the 20% calling themselves liberal or very liberal.
The 2010 results are based on eight Gallup and USA Today/Gallup surveys conducted from January through June, encompassing interviews with more than 8,000 U.S. adults. The 42% identifying as conservative represents a continuation of the slight but statistically significant edge conservatives achieved over moderates in 2009. Should that figure hold for all of 2010, it would represent the highest annual percentage identifying as conservative in Gallup's history of measuring ideology with this wording, dating to 1992.

If liberals only make up 20%, then how can this far left agenda be pushed upon the American people? How can they continue to ram this down our throat while we are gaging and trying to catch our breath?
I pray that we return to our Judeo-Christian roots and reclaim OUR country from those who want to see us fall. God will sit back just like we are and let it happen. Only when we decide to right the ship can we expect His help and blessings.
How could 20% liberal have elected our president?
