Poll: Majority opposes GOP control of House
THE HILL ^ | 10/21/13 | Mario Trujillo

Posted on 10/21/2013 5:21:38 AM PDT by SoFloFreeper

A majority says it is a bad thing for Republicans to control the House, with an even higher percentage believing Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) should lose his job, according to a new poll.

A CNN-ORC poll released Monday found 54 percent oppose Republican control of the House while 38 percent say it is a good thing....

The poll, taken over the weekend, surveyed 841 adults and has a 3.5-percent margin of error.

No word on whether they asked if Democrat control of the Senate was good. You know, the Democrat Senate that DID NOT PASS A BUDGET FOR THREE YEARS.

What was the percent of Democrats polled to Republicans polled? There will be a phony poll released every day until the 2014 elections.

The RINOs who hate conservatives, too, have to be eliminated in the primaries, just to make sure we are rid of them.

Well, perhaps I agree — I certainly don’t want Liberals to control the House.

This isnt a biggie. The GOP is divided into two camps..Washington DC cocktail party set and then Conservatives. Guess who has more peeps?

This is called a push poll. I’m surprised this showed up on “The Hill”. I used to read “The Hill” but stopped a few years back. I didn’t think it had gone left on us.

"841 adults"... at least half of whom either won't bother to vote, or will only vote because they were physically dragged to the polls by the Democrat machine.

That's also not even close to what Gallup recently found, also surveying just "adults". The support for single party rule is at its lowest point in the last 10 years.

Maybe CNN just surveyed Obamaphone users. Or their own newsroom.

This is a poll of ADULTS and virtually worthless.

Actually I believe this poll to be fairly accurate. Why?

Talking with my “conservative” nephew gave me a glimpse into the next generation’s thinking process.

They don’t understand how the 3 separate, but equal forms of our government work to create a system of checks and balances. When pressed to explain it basically came down to him saying if there was single party control...at least things would get done. Of course I challenged him to rethink his idea of tyranny between the legislative, executive, and judicial branches ....

But what it revealed is that this next generation does not have the education to comprehend the difference between a republic, democracy, and tyranny. They don’t understand the only thing standing between them and mob rule is The Republican/Tea Party.

It is a very sad statement made by that poll.

Probably taken on the BET website. You have to know who to ask to get the desired result you know.

A poll for dopes. If you polled Charlie Rangel’s district it would be 95 to 5 against Republicans. If you polled Scott Garrett’s New Jersey district it would be 55 to 45 in favor of Republicans. You would have to poll the remaining “swing” districts that have not been gerrymandered into secure districts to predict what will occur in 2014. Also a year is an eternity in electoral politics.
