But they will certainly turn around, big time over the course of the next few years. You wait and see.

I concur.

The Quadrennial Poll is the one to watch.

Everything else is speculation and commentary.

Well considering most everything the GOP predicts turns out not to happen I'm not too concerned. Let me know when we find the WMD, mmmmkay?

I never voted for that president.
See, I have the ability to think for myself. No herd mentality for me.

So, apparently when it comes to taxes, the economy, Iraq, national security, government ethics and immigration, more of the American public trusts Republicans than Democrats. The Dems lead the numbers when it comes to health care, Social Security and education. Tied on abortion.

And, yes it's a Rasmussen poll. But they have been consistently tracking these issues.
and the comeback is complete!!

I dont want your dam "programs"!!! Keep it because Democrats caused the problems and by creating more "programs", you'll be creating even more.
NO THANK YOU!!!! Nothing worse than someone who "claims" to be in the top 1% income of the country, telling me that GOVERNMENT will be saving me from problems they created... Thats just pathetic and I cant even believe you made such a claim..

No surprise here. History repeats itself, with Obama, a colosal disaster. I am reminded of the Carter years, only hundreds of times worse.

Why do we have to continually repeat history? Why don't we learn?

Obama's failed policies have been tried many times before. Why does he think they will work now?

They were found years ago, the fact that you dont know about it though isnt surprising, you have shown your ability to put your head in the sand and proclaim, "there are no WMD's, there are no WMD's" as they are being trucked out behind you

As for Rasmussen, they lack the resources to do the volume of polls that they do on a rigorous basis. They put their money into a few. The rest are sketchy. They use robo-callers and assume that self-reporting by those who answer is accurate. They don't do internal validation checks and they don't do follow-ups. Too expensive, too time-consuming...
Oh, really? Looks like they are doing nothing but destroying peoples lives, and ruining the U.S. economy.

This guy is a disaster. He is an absolute idiot, and has no clue what he is doing. Our country is going down the tubes, and he thinks it's great.

This is the Obama economy (and by extension, the Democrat economy). Do you like it? Is this the "hope and change" that you voted for?
