Bush supporters are still misinformed

Today I see that supporters of Bush Social Security plan are misinformed, and I am reminded of The Separate Realities of Bush and Kerry Supporters.

Long story short, people who favor Bush's Social Security plan don't really know what he's proposing, and most of them no longer favor it when they find out. Before the election, Bush supporters mostly thought that Iraq was dangerous (but the Duelfer report said otherwise), and most of them would no longer favor the Iraq war if it were otherwise.

Bush and Kerry supporters disagreed on the facts, but they all agreed that the Bush administration was the source of the beliefs that Bush supporters held and Kerry supporters didn't.

Have a look at the Think Progress article for a more detailed look at the Social Security facts versus the perception.
