Too bad you only have to read the first line under the group's name to see this is not an impartial survey. But then again, who does impartial surveys anymore.

They didn't want a contest in the presidential primaries and they can't get a contest in their younger voters. If the Dems don't do something and fast, they'll find themselves relegated to third party status in the next 30 years.

Right Wing News has a great quote from Newsmax (with additional comentary) that identifies the chief cancer destroying the Democrat party from within:

Democratic Party pollster Stan Greenberg said Wednesday that "one of the biggest doubts about Democrats is that they don't stand for anything."
