I don’t buy this poll. When Pelousi was in charge of the House the Rats’ ratings were far worse tha this.
ONce again, another POLL of “adults” as opposed to “Voting Adults” or “Adults who voted last election,” etc etc. Wrothless POS polls.
They used less than 1000 (bad polling), didn’t ask “likely voters” (bad polling) and I’d bet money more Democrats than Republicans were used (standard operation procedure).
AND STILL - 38% went for Republicans.
The composition of the House is solely dependent on the voters of each representative’s district. Poll the districts individually and see if they want a change, and then get back to me.
The Demoratic party has a 39% favorability among whites polled and a 56% favorability rating among non-whites. Obama has a 38% favorability rating among whites polled and a 60% favorability rating among non- whites. that trend permeates the poll. We can work with that.
“Forty-four percent say they have more confidence in Obama to tackle major issue, ahead of the 31 percent who expressed confidence in Republicans. “
Yes, Clinton News Network strikes again.
I would say, though if most freepers were polled and the qestion was:
Who should control the house?:
Republicans or Tea Party Conservatives.
I think we would have the answer.
Look at the poll stats broken down by whites versus non-whites. It’s very telling.
Even IF this poll were accurate and even IF it were limited to likely voters - and it’s not - it’s still worthless.
People don’t elect the majority of the House. They elect their congresscritter. And everybody knows that the whole of Washington is a pit of vipers except my guy - and he’s OK.
After all, he helped get Uncle Martha his social security check... How bad can he be?
These polls are absolutely meaningless.
841 people surveyed out of 300+ million and mostly all uninformed voters to boot more than likely. Oh yea, bound to be accurate! The thing that amazes me is the MSM legitimizes these pollster bozo’s. But then again it fits their “progressive” agenda.
Seriously, folks, who does not think the US is ripe for an all out dictatorship? People are begging to be enslaved. Begging!
If by “Republicans” you mean Boehner then yes, I agree. His ilk should not be in control of the House.

METHODOLOGY
A total of 841 adults were interviewed by telephone nationwide by live interviewers calling both landline and cell phones. All respondents were asked questions concerning basic demographics, and the entire sample was weighted to reflect national Census figures for gender, race, age, education, region of country, and telephone usage. Among the entire sample, 30% described themselves as Democrats, 20% described themselves as Republicans, and 50% described themselves as Independents or members of another party
Crosstabs on the following pages only include results for subgroups with enough unweighted cases to produce a sampling error of +/- 8.5 percentage points or less. Some subgroups represent too small a share of the national population to produce crosstabs with an acceptable sampling error. Interviews were conducted among these subgroups, but results for groups with a sampling error larger than +/-8.5 percentage points are not displayed and instead are denoted with “N/A”.

Palin: Disloyal, Corrupt GOP Establishment Colluding with Obama
Monday, October 21, 2013 06:04 AM
By: Elliot Jager
Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin may have taken another step toward seeking the 2016 Republican Presidential nomination with a combative op-ed on on Breitbart.
Recalling that she had once beaten crooked Republican politicians in Alaska – who’d brazenly tagged themselves “the Corrupt Bastards Club” – Palin rhetorically asked: “Doesn’t it seem like [today] we have a Corrupt Bastards Club in D.C.? On steroids?”
Disloyal Republicans are enabling President Barack Obama to march the country toward socialism while denouncing Sens. Ted Cruz, Mike Lee and tea party-aligned House Members who have been trying to defund Obamacare, Palin charged.
Establishment GOP politicians failed to use the power of the purse to halt Obamacare’s implementation. Instead, “they balked, waved the white flag, and joined the lapdog media in trashing the good guys who fought for us,” Palin wrote.

WND EXCLUSIVE
Michael Savage: Time for a ‘nationalist’ party
Published: 01/06/2013 at 9:48 PM
Michael Savage, one of the nation’s most prominent voices in talk radio, said today America is “absolutely” ripe for a third party, in part, because the two largest parties in the U.S. have pulled a “charade” on the American people.
“There is no Republican Party,” Savage told fellow talk show host Aaron Klein. “It’s an appendage of the Democrat machine, as we’ve all just seen. It’s two-card Monte, as we well know. It’s a game being played against the American people. You’ve got the drunk Boehner on the one side, and the quasi-pseudo-crypto Marxist on the other, who is really just enjoying the ride in Hawaii right now, representing his factions.”
Instead, “We need a nationalist party in the United States of America,” said Savage on WABC’s “Aaron Klein Investigative Radio,” suggesting a party focused on “borders, language and culture.”

Chicago?! Now that’s an unbiased poll for sure. /sarc
Is that what the public schools have done? Brainwashing the kids, OR not teaching them at all?
I doubt if home schooled children would have any confusion about a republic, democracy, tyranny.
