While positive ratings for Congress remain at an all-time low, more voters than ever see the Republican agenda in Congress as extreme.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 35% of Likely Voters say it would be more accurate to describe the agenda of Republicans in Congress as mainstream, while 52% feel extreme is a more accurate description. Thirteen percent (13%) are not sure.

they poll the same people who do that Jaywalking thing on The Tonight Show where they can’t tell you what color the White House is...
...more fact than fiction as far as I’m concerned...!
Lots of people don't want to hear the GOP or anyone else tell them that we are beyond broke. The MSM is not the problem, the people are.
Education continues unabated, and with remarkable speed to systematically dismantle all things identifiable as American, of her ideals, her Christian foundations, traditions and her extraordinary freedom to succeed or fail, the rights of the individual.
We are all collectivsts now, and not a peep from the people, nor their candidates about churning out more of the same through the pipeline of indoctrination, known as public education.
They want Newt out so Santorum can be competitive against Romney. What a crock. They want Newt out to save themselves and guarantee Romney as the nominee. Newt knows “education” and has lived the results.
Money is the only superdelegate this cycle.
Notice how the meme plays?
Anything not in keeping with the Democrat current truth is called “EXTREME!”
Republicans are bigots, racists, and anti-science homophobic bible thumpers, who want Grandma to eat dog food and die.
Anyone who watches the Magic Talking Box in the living room knows this to be fact.
Oprah and NBC Nightly News wouldn’t lie, would they?
Good luck with that. What is more likely is the uninspiring GOP candidate will depress turnout and allow Dems to gain, maybe take the House.
The GOP has an Agenda in Congress?
Obama with his lemming like followers sadly have put an end to the “Great American Experiment”.
“the power the MSM has is on the decline thanks to FR, Breitbart and others who are becoming an increasingly powerful force in American politics.”
Don’t kid yourself in to believing that...
The mere fact that a man like Barack Obama is currently sitting in the White Hut should be proof that you are mistaken.
How many examples do you need?
The sheeple just bleat along with whatever the Magic Talking Box in the living room tells them every night. In today’s media-centric society, the TRUTH no longer matters, just the narrative.
It is not an accident.
“It doesn’t matter what folks know, it matters only what they believe.”
RIGHT NOW, on Bloomberg, Obama is speaking live, claiming that he has created 3.7 MILLION new jobs.
Yet, WE KNOW that total payrolls have FALLEN by two million since Obama took office. This LIE will not be challenged on the mainstream media news shows tonight, it will, in fact, be trumpeted.
The headlines in tomorrow’s papers, and on on today’s cell phone news alerts will be :
‘RECOVERY SPEEDING UP. OBAMA CREATES 3.7 MILLION JOBS!’
ANYONE in the mainstream media who dares to challenge “The Current Truth” will be in danger of losing their own jobs. Would you want to be a reporter looking for a new job in the Obama Economy?
WAKE UP, FOLKS....
Here’s what I found, and IMO the word “extreme” was put into their mouths as in no other real choice under the current circumstances. See Item #4 below.
National Survey of 1,000 Likely Voters
Conducted February 8-9, 2012
By Rasmussen Reports
1* In political terms, is Barack Obama more conservative than you are, more liberal than you are or about the same?
2* In political terms, is the average Republican in Congress more conservative than you are, more liberal than you are or about the same?
3* In political terms, is the average Democrat in Congress more conservative than you are, more liberal than you are or about the same?
4* Would it be more accurate to describe the agenda of Republicans in Congress as mainstream or extreme?
5* Would it be more accurate to describe the agenda of Democrats in Congress as mainstream or extreme?
This isn’t a good survey at all IMO.
Time to Go Galt
How much power did the MSM exert in 2010? They are in decline with out a doubt. Still powerful yes. In decline absolutely.
Nailed it.
Enjoy what is left of our economy while you can. The total collapse is coming soon and it won't be pretty for anybody except the ultra wealthy and the politically connected.
Plus, you can bet the American people will blame the GOP for the entire thing. Had we pulled together as a party, we might have stood a chance, but we decided we hate each other even more than we hate Obambi and his minions.
We have squandered our last, best opportunity. Total free fall coming in 2013. Get you tickets now.
That's about the most insightful thing I've read in the last 20 years.
Damn right - Obama and the FED are doing a classic pump and dump until the election.
After this monster is re-elected we are heading for a fiscal, moral, civil, and national apocolypse most people are not financially, emotionally, or physically prepared for.
