It's The Culture, Stupid

Hmmmm... A different kind of focus group.

Political Times - Voter Disgust Isn’t About the Issues - NYTimes.com: "The focus group that met here in New Jersey on Monday included a bartender, a lawyer and a school bus driver. The dominant theme of the discussion, in which jobs and taxes came up only in passing, seemed to be the larger breakdown of civil society — the disappearance of common courtesy, the relentless stream of data from digital devices, the proliferation of lawsuits and the insidious influence of media on their children.

One woman described a food fight at the middle school that left a mess school employees were obliged to clean up, presumably because the children couldn’t be subjected to physical labor."

Of course this is spun by NYeT to make it seem like the Tea Party wave washing ashore is just another fad. But you should still RTWT.
