Rasmussen Reports ^ | 8-4-09 | Scott Rasmusen

The key stat here is "Voters not affiliated with either party prefer Republicans two-to-one - 43% to 22%."

The key stat here is "Voters not affiliated with either party prefer Republicans two-to-one - 43% to 22%."

And it would probably be about six-to-one if Scotty would ask the Independents if they preferred "Conservatives" to "Liberal Democrats."

It looks bad for the Dims. This is the biggest lead I've ever seen for Repubs in a generic ballot.

It's not working for you Obama LOL!

While these numbers are great don't discount that there is still many many months ahead of us to get through first.

I would like to see these socialists numbers in the single digits by the time the election comes around.

[TribalPrincess2U]

I can just hear those leftist azzholes pucker.

[a fool in paradise]

Is this two to one oversampled for Democrats as usual?

[clintonh8r]

So, the question for the pols is: “whom do you fear more, Pelosi and Reid or the voters”?

[TribalPrincess2U]

He’ll have to ship in more illegals.

Hire more ACORNS.

The ONLY way they win is by fraud and he has plenty of frauds going.

New name. Obanutjob.

[Soul Seeker]

No, Rass is a credible poll.

2010 is a route, Fauxbama is a lame duck by end of the year.

Anyone who votes for Fauxbamacare isn’t from the bluest of blue districts will be gone. Fauxbama’s Coattails will be blindingly obvious cement shoes before December.

Fauxbama will have zero leverage to accomplish anything by the end of the year. Most Democrats congressment aren’t ideologues but enjoy lots of perks for little work, they won’t fall on their swords for Faxbama, Pelosi et al.

Rasmussen is one of the better pollsters the last 6 years. He was way off in 2000, but since then has been pretty spot on. He does over sample Dims a bit, but nothing like Gallup, CBS, USA Today, CNN, etc.

A GOP comeback?

Wonder how well a conservative party might go over right now.

Answer: Pretty well in my book.

Too bad the election is not next week

[StAnDeliver]

The Blue Dogs are screwed IF the alternatives are in place.

That's part of the plan - amnesty for 30-40 million rat voters for a permanent majority. We are all socialists now....

Fight for America!!!!!!!!

So very true.

[April Lexington]

Wow! Things Must be bad out there. We don't even have a platform!

[April Lexington]

Women who have consistently favored Democrats now prefer the GOP by a 40% to 39% margin. Men continue to favor Republicans over Democrats 47% to 36%. Voters not affiliated with either party prefer Republicans two-to-one - 43% to 22%.

Talk about fickle. These people are political idiots. All they understand is... well, never mind. This is a family forum.

[Red Steel]

If these numbers stay the same by this time next year, we will see the Dems lose 60 seats or more. And the Dems in the Senate may not hold onto the majority. In 1994 for comparison, not very many people saw that Dem slaughter coming, and the people are really riled now.
