Bitter Wins

By The Daily Dish

Pretty funny result for this online poll at the LA Times. Asked whether they're bitter, over 60 percent answer:

Yes. I'll show you bitter when I vote.

Yeah, I know: it's a meaningless online poll. But telling Americans they're a cheerful happy bunch when the wrong-track number is at an historical high seems a slightly dubious political strategy to me. Almost - oh, I don't know - out of touch?
