Interesting but scary.

I'm used to the idea that supporters of different parties have different priorities, and udeas anbout what needs to be done, and have different interpretations of the facts. That's what politics is about.

But the idea that the supporters of one party are out of touch with reality in this kind of way is really frightening. Especially when it's quite on the cards that they are going to hold on to power for the next chunk of history - and when the country involved isn't some quaint little backwater, but the effective ruler of the whole planet.
