In what could be a significant opening for the Republican Party, working-class Americans have largely abandoned President Obama and rejected his economic policies as they continue to suffer from the historically weak economic recovery, a new analysis of IBD/TIPP Poll data finds.

So, voters fed up with Obama will turn to Obama’s toadies, the GOP?

“There is a hardened ideological core of 36% that will never disapprove of anything the moonbats do or dream up”

Not until they themselves are suffering for it and some would still say they approve but most support what benefits them, not what hurts them.

That has to be conservatives' strong message: you've been lied to. By Obama. By Holder. By Sharpton. By Pelosi. By the whole gang of thieves. They've tried to "fundamentally transform" America from a successful, secure economic and military power into just another tattered, failed nation. And YOU have paid the price for their arrogant, elitist experiment.

Isn't it time we returned to sanity? Isn't it time we stop letting the madmen run the place? Instead of listening to a lot of fabrications and egghead theories, isn't it time we started listening to common sense again?

Jack, I feels your pain. But you cannot inject reason or logic into American Blue Collar voters at this late date.

I think they are going to try and clone JFK with this O'Malley Geek from Maryland in an attempt to get "The Working Man" back on track. Karl (The Architect) Rove, the man who selects Republican POTUS Candidates, is far too clever to come up with a Reagan clone for them to vote for.

If you’re “working class”, you’re not the kind of people that ‘bammers wants on his plantation anyway.

The whole premise of this article is that the fake gilding on the liberal agenda is starting to wear through, and that working-class folks are beginning to see the fraud and lies that have underpinned the liberal appeal for decades.

This is the opportunity to drive a wedge into that crack by simply telling the truth. Liberals were NEVER on the side of the working class. Their policies benefited a handful of elitists and social engineers, but did not ever measure up to their promises. And the obama administration is the worst, most egregious example of those failed policies. All they have done is empowered a tyrannical government that robs the working class in favor of its cronies and its pet extremist causes. Ma and Pa America don't want this crap anymore, and the lies are so thin they're starting to become transparent.

Now is the time to strike ...

Not to worry, Boehner and McConnell will close that opening with their surrender powers.
