This is the most reliable unbiased polling you can find,
he does not take sides.
Scott is not a Democratic pollster. That is why the msm does not often quote his polls.
It appears that Americans are not in touch with their inner brainwashing. They just don’t pay those information manipulators enough these days apparently.
Scott Rasmussen is no Democrat
True.
These numbers demonstrate that Obama and his party are WAYYYY out of touch with America.
I hope the GOP learns its lesson.
I hope the RINOs stampede out of the GOP like Crist.
Add to this that many Dims have been gerrymanders, racially or otherwise, into 90% Dim Congressional districts and you can see why so many seats could change hands this time.
The biggest lie of the strong delusion is that we’re simply in a cycle.
NOVEMBER!
The American Tsunami!!!
100 Seats in Congress and ownership of the Senate by January.
I would feel better about this if I believed for one second that the dems have any plans of participating in a fair election process. Color me skeptical.
18% socialism is better ...
I dont know what to say. Mass deportation, FEMA Prison Camps, Reeducation centers, what are the solutions.
IIRC he only uses in his polls people who are registered to vote or at least people who are regular voters, which makes his numbers even better.
I stand corrected.
Now this is a poll you can believe
ABC News/Wash Post 4/22 - 4/25 1001 A 54 44 +10
SARCASM
Underlying data is not good: young adults are almost evenly split.
This will change naturally as people age, but also with the new media helping to undermine political correctness and the socialist propaganda in the pubic schools.
Don't count your hatches before they chicken. So-called "Tea Party" candidates in various districts will siphon off enough votes to ensure a Democrat win in them.
Personally...I look for the Oligarchy to double-down on the mess...
from Democratic pollster Scott RasmussenAND, this is despite the FACT that the broadcast media and print media are just partisan shills who spread their ass cheeks for Zero.
Ras is a Dem?
