OPPOSITION TO BAILOUT PLAN FALLS DRAMATICALLY
Monday, September 29, 2008

As Congress prepares to vote on a proposed economic rescue plan, opposition to the measure has declined significantly. A Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey conducted Sunday found that 33% of Likely Voters now favor the plan while 32% are opposed and 35% are not sure.

For proponents of the legislation, that’s a significant improvement. On Friday, just 24% of voters had supported the plan while 50% were opposed. http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/business/general_business/opposition_to_bailout_plan_falls_dramatically

GALLUP’S POLLING ON THIS SUBJECT IS VIRTUALLY IDENTICAL TO RASMUSSEN’S . . . ANOTHER DAY OR TWO OF ECONOMIC CARNAGE (WITH NO ACTION FROM CONGRESS) AND THESE NUMBERS WILL BECOME VERY UGLY VERY FAST FOR REPUBLICANS.

If you are correct and the American public becomes very supportive of this socialist scheme and faults congress for the failure, the majority party should be held accountable.

If the Dems are allowed to pin the financial crises on Republicans, we deserve defeat.

OK A) I do not trust these polls. ANY of them. They don't ring true, they have no credibility. and B) I cannot for the life of me, accept or believe that people would turn on Republicans because they failed to nationalize our entire financial structure, and give the keys to our money to those that caused it! All that and give to White House to Obama? He is clueless about the economy. Granted there are some who are ignorant, but enough to get him in office, I don't believe that.

I agree we need to do something NOW.

Dems will kill us in a few weeks if this isn’t fixed, so we need to present a new plan this week.

Damn it, we need a new contract with America.

Why the hell not? McCain needs to get a plan out there NOW.

There were problems with this bill, but we need to do something as soon as possible.
