The blue phobia

A poll from YouGov shows Democrats view climate change as more apocalyptic than nuclear war. Overall 28% of Americans answered nuclear war when asked the question " What do you think will be the most likely cause the apocalypse?" but among Democrats 27% view climate change as the greater threat. Ironically this view is held most strongly in the Northeast which has been buried under as much as 8 feet of snow for a month. The only ethnic demographic to mimic the Democratic phobia are Hispanics who view climate change to be more of a threat than nuclear war by 4 points, 23% to 19%. Go figure.
