        That doesn’t mean much. People react to what’s in front of them. Compared to DT, he’s “favorable,” but if they really remember Iraq, not so.

        Eh...I am sure this would be a lot different if there was a middle "Neither Favorable or Unfavorable" option like I see on a lot of surveys.

        And you are free to feel what you want, but this shouldn't be an indictment of the Democratic Party...it's a survey crafted for a slant.

        The man started the Iraq War based on lies and vengeance. I will never give him a positive rating.

        You're not a Dem because in hindsight people tend to have a rosier view of politicians who are no longer in politics? That seems...odd

        Their views on earlier presidents are based on comparisons to the current one. Which means the previous awful becomes the new norm.

        It's also a pretty basic facet of human psychology--there's even a word for it. It's called nostalgia. Happened to Rs after Bill Clinton too

        While that’s true, it doesn’t negate his point that he doesn’t feel represented by ppl who feel nostalgic for the man who took us into Iraq

        It's not like this is a plank of the Dem platform. This is a poll of voters who call themselves Democrats.

        Right, that’s exactly the point, though. It’s not about the party leaders, it’s the rank and file that dissatisfies him.
