Pollster: you're pretty damn stupid

  Well, now we know what they think.
  Honestly, it's good to get it out in the open, but it's sure depressing that you can't have an opinion opposite the experts and thus be determined stupid.
  It's sure depressing that unless you think monolithically with the intelligent people, you're stupid.
  It's sure depressing that this is what a $200,000 education buys: a belief that you're better than everyone else and that anyone who doesn't follow the same set of rules you and your politically correct cult follow is stupid.
  So who's the drone here? Who's the conformist, you hippie freaks? Who's the one touting the company line, succumbing to the influence of The Man?
  It ain't me, babe. 
  No, no, no, it ain't me.
  Washington Examiner:

So Franklin answered with considerable authority when he was asked, at a recent forum on the November 2 election results, why Republicans emerged victorious in so many races.  "I'm not endorsing the American voter," Franklin said.  "They're pretty damn stupid."
Franklin was responding to a question from Bill Lueders, news editor of Isthmus, a weekly alternative newspaper in Madison, Wisconsin.  In an account published Thursday (H/T Ann Althouse), Lueders says he asked Franklin why "the public seemed to vote against its own interests and stated desires, for instance by electing candidates who'll drive up the deficit with fiscally reckless giveaways to the rich."
