This says it all...

Just when you thought the folks in Sacramento reached their lowest point in public opinion polls...California City News has a great post about our legislature, to wit:

Public Split on Trusting the Legislature or Britney Spears with Budget Choices

In the latest blow to the California legislature's psyche, a recent poll by Wilson research demonstrates that the public is basically split on whether to trust our elected legislature, or Britney Spears with the budgetary decisions. An excerpt from the poll as shared by CCN friend and political consultant Tab Berg:

Q17: And, who do you think would do a better job handling your family's budget [ROTATE] California legislators or Brittany Spears?

1. California Legislators 35%
2. Brittany Spears 31%
3. Don't Know/Refused 34%

Bear in mind, this is not a website poll or other informal kind of 'push-polling' -- it's a professionally administered poll by a respected firm. Tab Berg wrote an opinion piece reacting to this latest disgrace on the conservative Flashreport blog that is worth a read.

And the longer we look at these numbers, the crazier it sounds. Maybe the most troubling part is the 34% of respondents who can't decide between the two! Maybe they want to go re-watch the clip of Brittany shaving her head before making that call for sure.
