20

By Michael J.W. Stickings

That's the percentage of Americans who, according to a new NBC/WSJ poll, identify themselves as Republican. (Overall, only 13 percent identify as "Strong Republican," while 7 percent are "Not very strong Republican" and 11 percent are "Independent / lean Republican.")

Increasingly extreme, increasingly irrelevant, increasingly small.

Ladies and gentlemen, your 2009 GOP!

(H/T to Creature, of course, who does these number-based posts so well. I hope he doesn't mind my treading on his turf.)
