Democratic pollster Stan Greenberg agreed, saying that the United States is now “in a progressive period.”
“The conservative movement brought about by the Gingrich revolution has been crushed,” he said.
Greenberg pointed to exit polls conducted by his firm, Greenberg Quinlan Rosner, showing that Democrats hold a significant edge over Republicans on the issues on which most voters based their decision on Election Day.
“Area after area people have tilted toward the progressive policy,” Greenberg said pointing specifically to the economy, the war in Iraq, energy and healthcare. “There has been a change in the way we think about society and the economy, and Democrats have a huge advantage.”
