Gallup: Protecting the country from Terrorism and Military threats

PRINCETON, NJ -- Americans continue to give the Republican Party a slight edge over the Democratic Party -- 49% vs. 42% -- in their perceptions of the party that will better protect the United States from international terrorism and military threats. The Republicans' edge on this issue is unchanged from last year but has diminished from earlier in the decade.

Anyone else find it ironic that a 7pt lead(49-42), is a described as “a slight edge” yet when Obama won the election by the same 7pt margin(53-46), it was an overwhelming victory asnd a mandate and a call for change and all of that. I don’t recall anyone at Gallup or elsewhere in the media describing Obama’s slight election vitory.

Indeoendents give Repubs a 21 point edge. Republicans give republicans the edge 91-4 and Democrats give Democrats the edge 84-12. Overall Republicans only have a 7 point edge. How can this be you ask?

Simple, you oversample left wing loons.

More great news! Here in Va, libs are trying to find a “macaca” moment for McDonnell who’s running as GOP Governor this Nov. So far, they’ve uncovered a “horrifying” thesis he did 20 years ago on why women should stay home with their kids. (shutter, gasp) Doesn’t seem to be sticking. He still has a 9-12 point lead over Deeds.

Well turning the Presidency over to a disruptive petulant child might be why that has happened. How is that Hope and Change foreign policy working out for you Obama?
