USA Today had an article titled “Poll: 57% don’t see stimulus working”. This article could just have easily been titled “Poll: Large minority still drinking the Kool-Aid”, although to be fair roughly 30% will always favor whatever policy the Democratic Party proposes and roughly 30% will always oppose said policy (and vice-versa with the Republican Party).
