A series of polls reported over the last few days by Scott Rasmussen paint an interesting picture of an electorate that may be on the eve of what the Democrats intend to be the most radical transformation in our history.
By a 77 percent to 14 percent margin, voters say the big problem in the United States is politicians' unwillingness to cut spending, not the electorate's unwillingness to pay more taxes.
By a 47 percent to 18 percent margin, respondents believe the government will do a bad job, not a good job, of running GM and Chrysler.
By a 75 percent to 13 percent margin, Americans think it is more important to develop new sources of energy than to require auto-makers to produce more fuel-efficient cars.
By a 66 percent to 24 percent margin, voters oppose a federal bailout for California.
Almost in spite of the news you note from Rasmussen, the ever peculiar American voter thinks (slightly more) highly of Democrat than the Republican, all else being equal.
ReplyDeleteIt must be time for the Republicans to become real conservatives. Or perhaps its time to make a go of a new, conservative party. Somehow, we gotta get out of the screw up we're in.
May God bless America!
Yes, I feel much the same way. I fear, however, that a third party would be simply that and would split the anti-liberal vote. So I feel the better strategy is to convince strong Conservatives to take the lead in the Republican Party and further show those "moderate" Republican leaders the error of their ways. NOW IS THE TIME TO ATTACK OBAMA'S POLICIES !!!!!
