Help make this 'A November to Remember'.
Ask your neighbor over a beer, if they're doing as well now as they were 2 years ago.

LOL! It’s a poll of adults which usually skews the numbers to the benefit of the Dems. The real numbers are actually worse than this poll indicates.
I plan to make this a November to remember! Hopefully the rest of the country does too. I keep envisioning a very glum looking election night where they inform the public that the dems lost every seat up for election. :)
America has survived 3 years of Democrat Congressional dominance but it has come at high price.
“Overall, the July 22-25 national poll of 1,075 adults gave Obama an approval rating of 48 percent...”
Adjusted to likely voters, the 48 becomes something less.
The challenge for conservatives is to transfer unhappiness with Obama to 435 dem House candidates, and 36 dem Senate candidates.
Say to voters: “If you want more of the same harmful policies, vote democrat. If you want to end one party rule, vote for me.”
...”People were more negative about Obama’s performance...”
...which people are unhappy?....LaKeisha and DeShawn ain’t negative about Obama’s performance...think they’re negative down at the SEIU union hall?....think again!...teacher’s union going negative?...ACORN?....the Unions and the underclass are just fine with Obama; thank you very much.
....the white middle class will do what it always does in Nov...argue amongst themselves and then stay home...this fantasy of a big conservative sweep is just that...fantasy...there’s more Dem votes in just one inner city public housing project than all the Freepers put together...and community organizers will deliver them like clockwork.
Truth be told, you’d inquire about their condition for the past 4 years, the time the democrats have had control of Congress.
When they talk about policies that ‘created’ this crisis, ask do they know where Obama and Biden were when this was happening?
...a sizable enthusiasm gap with Republicans more energized about voting in the elections. Americans expressed deep unhappiness with the direction of the economy, which in the poll they identified overwhelmingly as the country's top problem... People were more negative about Obama's performance on the economy than on any other question surveyed... Only 34 percent approved of Obama's handling of the economy and jobs compared to 46 percent who deemed it unsatisfactory. This is a sharp decline from early 2009, shortly after he took office, when more than half of those surveyed approved of Obama's handling of the worst financial crisis in decades. Overall, the July 22-25 national poll of 1,075 adults gave Obama an approval rating of 48 percent, a small decline from a June survey that had him at 50 percent approval.Even phony pollsters can only cook the books just so much.
Translation: This was poll that would make Reuters a contender for the La Raza Affirmative Action Award, since they included aliens as part of the "U.S. population." Accordingly, the results were skewed in favor of Obama and his administration.
The Republicans are hoping to win control of the house of Representatives in November and pick up seats in the Senate.
Memo to Reuters: Republicans are hoping to win control of the Senate as well!
Dims are going to take one heck of a shot come Nov 2nd.
I don't even know why many of them are even running...
There fixed it.
