Gallup-publican Party Favorability Sinks to Record Low

Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of idiots.

Thanks for the House republicans! 2014!

 

A record low number for the Republican Party, with 62% of Americans viewing them unfavorably, according to Gallup (a respected polling service), the favorability rating having gone down 10% in a month. 10%! Grim news indeed for the GOP, and obviously they are desperately searching for a way out, caving to Obama on at least one of the two emergencies the Republicans created themselves. Sometimes the American public can be slow getting the true political picture, but eventually they do. They are starting to get clarity now.

 

I'll take the lack of posts to mean Texxx & Co. are scrambling for some right wing media contradiction.

 

I heard this cornyn (or however you spell it) ad on radio.. some kind republican commercial. The sound bites are just hilarious.

One part says something about 'less gov't' something I hear republicans hammer home but I'm confused-

Republicans want less gov't yet military spending and 'more military' (ahem govt) and these republicans are always chickenhawking too. I will be frank too in that they like to chickenhawk but they all seem like a bunch of p*****s to be honest. I mean my little sister could take newt gingrich rush limbaugh and that turd hannity on at same time in a fight. Yes my sister might be linebacker strong but military out of control GOVT and they are professing less?!?!? Whats the deal here? I dont get how military is somehow disconnected from gov't in their mind?

defense spending is out control and our biggest expense times like a zillion of everything else.

How is the number 1 expense not 'more govt'?

I mean to me the level of stupidity and pandering to a 'base' that can't be this blind.

Bush was war spending with a blank check,scaring us about 'terrists' and making us safer with the TSA and you guessed it? more gov't from you guess who?.. yup republicans.

I mean are these guys like cornyn just saying it I guess. They have stopped even trying to care. Its like those nigerian scams where its so fake the nigerians are actually going for the stupid ones that think its real.

These republicans now are just full stock going for that low hanging fruit of backwoods antiquity. We are talking Gertie in Tyler precious thing at 77. Dont forget bubba 'yes his name is really bubba' who has his walker attached to the back of his rebuilt dodge covered in nobama stickers.

The pandering is so overt that its comical. And then people believe somehow that in their mind it sounds good to say(with heavy thick redneck accent) 'I like this cornyn guy'... 'texas conservative like me' yessir

Comedy gold

 

Meanwhile....

Obama's Approval Rating Sinks to 37 Percent. (AP)

http://reason.com/blog/2013/10/10/obamas-approval-rating-sinks-to-37-perce

Hmmm....I guess the Republicans don't get all the blame after all.

 

The Republicans have learned a long time ago their politicians are idiots. The democrats are still in denial.

 

Denial? I prefer to think of it as more optimistic and a better outlook on life.

Another piece of good news from the NBC/WSJ poll

The poll also found an increase in support for the Affordable Care Act with 38 percent of respondents approving of the law -- up from 31 percent in the same poll last month.

 

I can't bet on that. They didn't lose it last time in '96 and I'm not sure Congressional elections run on the same logic. How did the Tea Party guys win in 2010? Is this shutdown and the resistance to ACA a contradiction of their party primary and district mandates or fulfillment of it?

 

Low turnout.

The mistake won't happen again. I know it's a heavy lift, but I'm optimistic.

 

It's simple. After "the bailout", most Americans, including independents, realized that corporatism is more of a threat to our way of life than terrorism, and GOP scare points aren't working anymore. Americans know that Republicans serve Wall Street, so it's game over for the right wing.

 

Of course, in that poll, Congress gets a 5% approval rating. That's fairly hard to do because even if you ask a ridiculous question ("Are you dead?"), something like 5% answer yes in polls.

 

True, everybody's taking a hit in this fiasco, but Republicans are taking the biggest share of it.

 

Meanwhile Rassmussen has Obama with a 51-47 approval rating, about the same as it was at the start of the shutdown.

Well, you know Rasmussem is just a libtard member of the lame stream media, doncha?

 

It won't matter if the nuts keep on getting elected and GOP have control of the house. We will see if it does matter in 2014. Maybe with demographic changes, in 10-20 years GOP will become less extreme in order to survive.

 

It's been an open secret that Republicans aren't a national party anymore. The flight of open support for leadership by its members has been eroding to the bone since dub**** signed TARP.

These losers are holding ground to their gerrymandered districts where their main opposition is in the primaries where the crazies,bigots, and proud know-nuthin hillbillies really are authentic crazy, bigot or know-nuthin hillbilly. They're replacing experienced politicians because in the GOP's greater platform of distrusting the government and wasteful spending, the message seeped in too well and their constituents have singled their leadership as the problem. They might as well ALL be corrupt slimy sons of b****es.

factor that In with the gen pop not voting in primaries, and you get a **** stew of our own making that we have to eat.

Occupy needs better strategic positioning. TeePees nailed that one down.

Seems like ACA is tied to Obama at the hip more than ever.
