Poll: Public Uneasy With GOP Leadership
LA Times ^ | January 7, 2006 | WILL LESTER, Associated Press Writer

Posted on 01/07/2006 4:59:58 AM PST by DanTheAdmin

WASHINGTON -- Dissatisfied with the nation's direction, Americans are leaning toward wanting a change in which political party leads Congress -- preferring that Democrats take control, an AP-Ipsos poll found. Democrats are favored over Republicans 49 percent to 36 percent.

Here we go again - the AP attemps to shape American politics into it's left-wing image.

(I hope it's not a repost - I did do a search)

Another paid-for-results wet dream from the LA Times and Aye Pee.

The "poll" has been debunked already. It was biased by a 12% oversampling of Democrats with no explanation as to why they did so.

Now all the liberals will believe the phony results and be left wondering what happened the day of the election. (Same way Kerry was leading in the last election until the actual results came in.)

WOW! There's a suprise! Glad to hear it - but will that be reported anywhere in the MSM? Hmmm... I doubt it.

Well then, since the RATs are going to win anyway, they can be overconfident and blow whatever possible lead they may or may not have by acting like idiots.

Gosh, I could just cut and paste the above for so many surveys...

It's a good thing this Rich Bond fellow is a "former" RNC chairman. We don't need a pessimist like him. "Grim environment?" "Republican woes?" Be positive when speaking to the press!!

The AP should be under investigation for their relationship with the DNC. Are reporters taking money? Is Sixty Minutes looking into this? No. I guess they're too busy checking out phoney docs concerning Bush's TxANG service.

Wonder what percentage of AP "reporters" are RATS? Something like 90%?

That unnamed Democrat sure is popular. The problem they have is all their candidates have names.

The GOP in Congress needs to labor under the assumption they are going get their a$$e$ handed to them in November.

I keep hearing there are 20 or more Iraq War Vets who are planning to run for congressional seats across the country. If anyone thinks that won't "play in Peoria," they've got their head in the sand - or elsewhere.

I assume that this is the same Ipsos that is a marketing firm. Here's their latest newsletter.

Dems are such hypocrites.

They can't stand the military and are bringing in vets to run in districts that they don't even live in.

They are running vets that can't stand the war. Dems have such trouble finding them they don't even live in the district they are running in.

Google AP-Ipsos poll and just take a look at all the junk that comes up and how bad those projections were. This is a poll to make the gutter snipe liberal idiot nitwits feel better about their dismal situation.

You mean Like John Kerry worked so well in 2004? Or that Ohio "War Vet" that got his ass handed him by a RINO Woman in Ohio last fall? Maybe you want to ask Bob Dole how well being a War Vet worked for him? Amazing how arrogant the Chicken Little Choir is to make these Doom and Gloom pronouncements. Nice you have feelings LP, please quit confusing them for facts.

Why would the AP hire a French polling firm? (sarcasm)

I am glad to see it. Let the Democrats think that their shrill and over the top tactics are working so they will pull out all the stops and continue with what they are doing.
