POLL: Plurality favors Zimmerman verdict as correct, 48-34. Funny, you wouldn’t know that from the media coverage. “For the Democrats, everything is about 2014. Their base represents a minority view of the Zimmerman case, but it is a passionate minority. As with gun control and various other issues, the Democrats don’t expect any practical results from politicizing the Zimmerman case, other than to drive turnout in next year’s election.” Yep. If they lose the Senate, and face investigations from both houses — particularly with an election looming and limiting Obama’s ability to threaten or protect potential witnesses — they’re in big trouble.
