    You can already hear the high-fives over at the Democratic National Committee.

    A new poll from Gallup strongly suggests that the Democrat strategy of painting Rush Limbaugh, Dick Cheney, and Newt Gingrich as the faces of the GOP — in order to cast the party as hidebound and lacking in new ideas and leaders — appears to be dovetailing very neatly with reality. Even among Republicans.

    The poll finds that when national adults are asked who is leading the Republican Party, the names most often cited are Limbaugh and Cheney, with Gingrich and John McCain tied for third. Meanwhile, a majority — 51% — had no opinion or said no one.

    And check this out: Even Republicans and Republican leaners agree that these are their leaders, with more of them citing Limbaugh, Gingrich and Cheney as speaking for the party than anybody else.

    Also note that 43% of Republicans and leaners — nearly half — had no opinion or named no one as speaking for the party. You couldn’t ask for clearer evidence of the leadership crisis the party is facing right now.

    The fact that the three most often cited as speaking for the party are male, white, old, and extremely conservative also underscores the challenge the party will face in shaking off its image as, well, male, white, old, and extremely conservative.

    Right now, you have a pot that's boiling. There are a lot of P..O.. people who feel that their country is being destroyed. At this point they don't need a leader.....because these people are on the same page....a liberal couldn't understand this because they can't think for themselves...they need a leader to follow and tell them what to think.

    Liberals are spinless idiots that get their thinking points from liberal news pundits, late night comedians and other less than reliable sources. The sad part is that they are not even aware its taking place.
