I don't see this demographic mentioned in polling results. Do they want to try a new party that may create jobs or do they want to keep voting for the party that will extend their unemployment checks?

It will probably depend on the state. In Ca you can be sure they will say "bring Jerry on" other states will vote for change I am betting.

Because republican policies most likely was the cause for their unemployment and republicans refusing to create jobs or help those unemployed, I'd highly doubt any would vote republican.

For no one, since they see that both parties have sold them out.

oh come on, let's be fair here. Posts like yours are just the kind that few take seriously, it makes you look pretty stupid to be honest and I doubt you really are. Narrow minded, unable to see any other side yes, stupid I doubt it.

I think they would opt for the Party that wants to do both, not for the Party that wants to prevent both.

I'm being completely fair and stating points. You seem to just attack with no basis though that is the common republican stance.
It's fact the economic collapse and record job loss happened under bush. Obama has put the brakes on it and some private sector jobs have come back, but the damage has already been done. Not to mention adding insult to injury, the republicans voted against extending unemployment for those desperately looking for jobs.

You do have to admit, Republican voters have a long history of voting for people that hurt them. Isn't there a term for that phenomenon?
