THE PUBLIC SPEAKS; ANYONE LISTENING? – AT 8:05 A.M. ET:  As the Obamans get set to sue Arizona over its illegal-immigration law, the American people have different ideas, as Scott Rasmussen reports:

Voters by a two-to-one margin oppose the U.S. Justice Department’s decision to challenge the legality of Arizona’s new immigration law in federal court. Sixty-one percent (61%), in fact, favor passage of a law like Arizona’s in their own state, up six points from two months ago.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that just 28% of voters agree that the Justice Department should challenge the state law. Fifty-six percent (56%) disagree and another 16% are not sure.

But get this:

On the other hand, the nation’s Political Class thinks the legal challenge is a great idea. Seventy-three percent (73%) of Political Class voters agree with the Justice Department decision to challenge the Arizona law, while 67% of Mainstream voters disagree and oppose that challenge.

COMMENT:  Ah, the political class.  Completely out of touch with the people.  And yet, it's the political class that the Obama crowd listens to.  They're the ones with the right degrees and the gold-plated jobs.  And they sound so nice.

It is our sacred mission to make sure that the power of the political class is curtailed.  They ain't us.  Oh, excuse me.  That's not good political class language.  Let's say that they adhere to an alternative narrative.
