Generic Congressional Ballot
Generic Congressional Ballot: Democrats 47%, Republicans 36%


Monday, December 03, 2012

Democrats have now jumped to an 11-point lead over Republicans on the Generic Congressional Ballot for the week ending December 2, 2012.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey shows that 47% of Likely U.S. Voters would vote for the Democrat in their district’s congressional race if the election were held today, while 36% would choose the Republican instead.

Some of the Democrats in the Senate don't even support Obama's proposal. Also, anybody who didn't know the fiscal cliff was coming shouldn't have voted. Everybody knew it was coming. Tax rates to expire Jan 1 reverting to Clinton tax rates. Debt ceiling has to be raised again. I knew it. Why didn't you? Look out below.....



The president dropped points too.

I agree that their support is on the edge but it is NOT because they won't cave to Obama....it is quite the opposite. Republicans were not elected to fold to the Dem agenda (the fact that Dem are only getting 47% and not the surplus from 36% demonstrates that). Republican voters do not trust their Republican officials (at least not many of them). To believe that means that they are therefore on board with Obama however is to SERIOUSLY misread them.

A lot of people would get on their economic plan if they weren't such nazis.



I just can't stand their puritanical nonsense.

They have a very myopic social platform. That is quite simply what is killing them. I'm sick of republicans trying to legislate their morals to control the lives of others. They'll be viewed in the same way that we view those that fought to keep slavery and segregation legal.

Sounds like a survey I remember were 100% of prisoners who played video games were in prison. Surveys are one of the most bsed things out there, since the survier can select their audience and hence results.
