PRINCETON, NJ -- Americans' favorable rating of the Democratic Party dropped to 41% in a late March USA Today/Gallup poll, the lowest point in the 18-year history of this measure. Favorable impressions of the Republican Party are now at 42%, thus closing the gap between the two parties' images that has prevailed for the past four years.
There has been little change by party in the Republican Party's favorable image compared to the late summer 2009 measure, although the percentage of Republicans with a favorable image of their party remains significantly higher than it was in May 2009.

You are completely right. A democrat like Zell Miller I could actually see myself supporting. I know where he stands on things, and I know that he knows it. I don’t agree with a good bit of what he does, but still I will take him every day of the week over McCain, whom I don’t know where he stands from moment to moment. At least Zell wants a solid border, and knows the difference between spitballs and B-1 bombers.
LOL
BUMPER STICKER! Or T-SHIRT!
It’s funny how so many of you still look at this as though it’s just another election cycle—it’s just those pesky politicians on “the other side” causing trouble.
Mark my words, if you all run to the polls in November and vote R’s you will be sorely disappointed in what they do to undo the hard left’s achievements.
If there is an election, whomever you elect will serve within the confines of the new hard left government that the communists are building right now.
You had better drop the GOP party hat and vote for hard-nosed right-wingers, or you might as well vote for the Communist Party USA outright.
The GOP is in the process of being castrated. By November, they will be utterly useless.
They will do close to nothing to return our country to its former glory.
I guarantee that this is how it will go down.
No doubt. The Communists took em over. At least they are getting exposed. They sure are doing a lot of damage though.
Righto and Tally Ho
While these polls are great news, you have to wonder when we’re going to hit the bedrock of liberal loons whom nothing but a Damascus road experience is going to change.
My own conversion about 25 years ago didn’t take much more than an Army buddy pointing out that although I styled myself a liberal, most of my views on specific issues were actually moderate-to-conservative.
It was painless and I’ve never looked back. But it’s not going to be so easy for the union thugs, the academics, the media types, etc. because too much of their livelihood involves peddling lies to the rest of us.
Ultimate corruption is when you start believing your own lies, which I believe describes the mental state of Emperor Bozo the Usurper and his minions.
thanks, don-o. :-/
Both parties suck.
“It has been hi-jacked by communists and extreme leftist radicals.”
No. It has always been that party. It simply dumbed down the American people and figured out how to sell it.
“It must be removed from power IN ITS ENTIRETY.”
That’s the only way it has a chance in hades of becoming again the party of Zell Miller, Henry Jackson, etc.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have patriotic, America-loving, capitalist-minded people representing Democrats? Those are people we could work with to get this country back in order!
The person who turned me from Democrat to Republican was Jimmy Carter.
No offense to Jews, but anybody who would have voted for this idiot can’t really care about their people.
Kind of a dumb thing to say. Very dumb.
I'd be surprised if the number who could even name said representative was anywhere near that high.
BREAKING NEWS THIS AM...Bart Stupak Retiring After 18 Years in Congress. As I said in post #31 YESTERDAY....
America May have failed to see that the bamster was a radical leftest and perhaps a muzzie ,,, but that's only because he hid all the documentations of his past , birth cert. , passport , college materials and many more things that would have raised much more curiosity with the electorate .
Let the Dems jump for joy ,,, it all ends in November and in the 2012 pres. election , then the healthcare plan , tax grabs , bailouts , and takeovers will be defunded or repealed . Then the American Tea Party will jump for joy . America may be in it's finest hour since 1776 . A revolution is under way and the dem. party has moved SO FAR LEFT it is begining to split . If you are a couch potato you may fail to see the power of the Tea Partiers in action . Bart Stupak knows it's the end of the line .
I agree. We will see.
