Rasmussen: Conservative Anger Against Obamacare Hitting 'Stratospheric Levels'
Newsmax ^ | 7/2/12 | Paul Scicchitano and Kathleen Walter

Posted on 07/02/2012 4:39:50 PM PDT by Nachum

Conservative interest in the presidential election hit “stratospheric levels” following last week’s Supreme Court ruling upholding Obamacare, noted pollster and author Scott Rasmussen tells Newsmax.TV.

“All that did was energize conservatives,” declared Rasmussen in an exclusive interview on Monday. “The conservative interest in the election was already much higher than that of moderates and liberals. It went up to really stratospheric levels right after the ruling. We don’t know if that will continue or if it’s just a temporary response to the news cycle.”

Yeah, cause staying home and letting Obama get reelected will be the fix, “Mary.”

Romney is gonna be President. He’s not my choice, but my vote.

Tell Skinner we are all going to vote for Rmoney.

I hope its 2010 all over again. Omamas' BFD turns out to be a BFT.

I would vote for Bush I again, if it were necessary to do so to beat Obama.

That is a very good idea! It’s called “resistance”.

I think there’ll be lots less “cut nose off to spite face” 3rd party voting going on because of NobamaTax. Lots of talk, in the end when no one’s watching they pull Mitt.

I’m not voting for Romney, but he’s going to win anyway, even if all the freepers withhold their votes. That’s too bad because I fully expect him to betray us down the line.

I am voting for Sherrod Brown’s replacement Josh Mandel. So there’s one R flip for repeal Ohioans can accomplish.

So, perhaps Roberts had that in mind when he ruled they way he did, even as he knew that he would become the biggest antihero in Supreme Court history.

That would explain the reported expressions on his face when he read the verdict. Allegedly he was nearly in tears and red-faced.

If all of this is true, it explains much.

He stated that there is no silver-lining to this ruling.

Even Mark Levin, whose recent book I'm selectively re-reading because I've learned much from him but tend to forget some things, doesn't know how this Roberts ruling definitely plays out. No human does for sure. It's just too soon yet.

I appreciate your comments which go much further than I ventured to explore in my short posts tonight. Your opinions seem reasonable to me. I just cannot condone these unwise personal attacks on the person of CJ Roberts on this thread tonight. More needs to be revealed. Need more info and more time before constructing the gallows.

The only possible way to rid ourselves of this treason, even if it’s small, is to vote for mittens. I know the chance is small, but allowing four more years of slumbama means a catastrophe beyond words.

In 2008 we had mclame, who clearly did not want to be elected and it was easy to sit it out, much to our chagrin now. Heck in 08, I was sure as sure can be that the USA would never elect some socialist with a damn mooselimb name.

And your idea of going to war is to vote for Romney. Wow.”

No, last chance before war. Probably won’t work, but what the hell.

It’s amusing to watch posters like you twist themselves into pretzels in order to justify Roberts actions.

This is nothing noble in what Roberts did. I sincerely believe that he was either bought, blackmailed or was fully intimidated by the thought of being “Borked” in DC for the rest of his career and decided that it would be easier for him to deal with the angst of the nation’s conservatives than the libtards and their media machine.

I'm stratospheric all right, and I'm taking action. I'm not going to let this bunch of frickin low-grade morons destroy this country that my grandchildren stand to inherit.

I'll have a new website come online next week.

I'll have a new software package available in a week or two that will allow CONSERVATIVES to search govt sites and private news and commentary sites far more efficiently.

I'll have a surprise software package available in a couple of weeks as well.

I'll charge a cost for them but it's going to be really low, $25 for one and $10/mo for the other so most people can afford them. I'm in business so I gotta make a profit on them.

For the first time in 15 years, I've donated to my congresscritter, Rep Steve King from Iowa, a REAL anti-illegal hawk! My Senators are split. Grassley is head of the finance committee and doing a marvelous job. Just wish I could do something about harkin ;(

And finally, (grumble) I'll vote for Romney just to get rid of the current resident.

Anger don't BEGIN to describe my mental state. But it's a cold fury that leaves me able to think and plan.

Godspeed

You’re right. Third party voters won’t impress electronic voting machines much. Voting AGAINST Obama is the right thing to do, IMHO.

If nobama get re-upped, any jerk that tell me he voted 3rd party to teach the GOP a lesson will be #1 on my target list.

One thing we can all do RIGHT now is to stop paying the Liberal Enablers in the media.

Stop watching NBC tonight. Do not watch them anymore. All the Leftwing agitators at MSNBC are high-fiving and whooping about this victory over us. Why help pay their salary?

Dan Rather’s CBS? Don’t watch!!!

ABC and George Steppenallofus? Steppenallofus has a conference call EVERY morning with James Carville and David Axelrod to go over strategy for Obama. What kind of journalist is that? Don’t watch ABC!

I love the PBS show NOVA, but can not help their ratings even for one minute. Bill Moyers? Comeon! Don’t watch PBS!!!

Fight back right now!!! Turn OFF the TV!!!

Me too. I am an attorney whose business has collapsed in the last three years like most others. Still though, I signed up to do vote fraud monitoring for Romeny and the. GOP.

My level of anger and seething rage is at levels never before.

If he is the Republican nominee, then he probably will win. Whoever is the Republican nominee will be elected President, IMHO. Convention is next month.
