Democrat Favorability Rating at 18 Year Low in Gallup … Hello Midterms Here They Come

RUT-ROH … Democrat favorability rating hits 18 year low.  This represents an all time low in the Gallup poll for Democrats since the polling began in 1992. Hardly the news that Democrats wanted to see going into the 2010 midterm elections.

The downward trend for Democrats will spell disaster this Fall. Is it any wonder why Obama is in full socialist agenda mode with cramming his policies down the throats of America. He has until Fall and then the gig is up.

Gallup last measured party images in late August/early September of last year. At that point, the Democratic Party enjoyed an 11-point favorable image advantage over the Republican Party. Now, the favorable ratings of the two parties are essentially tied.

The images of the two major parties have particular significance in a midterm election year. For example, the favorable rating of the Democratic Party exceeded that of the Republican Party by 52% to 37% just prior to the 2006 midterm elections, in which the Democrats gained 31 House seats.

As Hot Air points out in their analysis, the GOP present now leads 42/41 for the first time since 2005. Although the lead is slight, it is the poll trending that needs to be examined.

Look for political carnage this Fall in the midterm elections for Democrats. as stated at Powerline, “it has taken Obama less than 15 months to do for the Democrats what it took Bush eight years to do for the Republicans”.

Obamacare, Another One Bites the Dust: US Rep (D-MI) Bart Stupak Retiring After 18 Years in Congress

ANOTHER DEMOCRAT BITES THE DUST AT THE HANDS OF OBAMACARE!!!

BYE, BYE BART …

Good Riddance … US Representative Bart Stupak will be retiring from Congress. Stupak who turned on the rights of the unborn in his Judas vote for Obamacare will be stepping down. The announcement is supposed to come

So the Tea Party is just a fringe movement, eh? The Power of the Tea Party. Do not let anyone tell you, even Stupak, that the Tea party did not have an influence in Stupak’s retirement. The Tea Party represents “We the People.” They are a representative symbol of the discontent in America with politicians.

Democratic Congressman Bart Stupak of Michigan tells The Associated Press he’ll retire from Congress rather than seek a 10th term this year.

Stupak has drawn stinging criticism from opponents of the recently enacted health care overhaul after leading a bloc of anti-abortion Democrats whose last-minute support was crucial to its approval by the House.

The Tea Party Express is calling for his defeat at rallies in his sprawling northern Michigan district this week.

Tea Party Express Bus tour rolls into Stupak’s district, pledging to avenge health care vote. I think it worked, much to the denial of Stupak. Although, the Democrats today seem to be in denial of much these days.

Between Barack Obama and the Tea Party movement … how many Democrats will meet their political demise come 2010 and 2012?

CBS Poll on Obamacare … Support for Obamacare Falling Still … Defeat for Democrats in Midterms

President Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and the Democrat controlled Congress forced Obamacare down the throats of Americans in a partisan, Un-Constitutional manner and “We the People” continue to be even more furious as the days go on.

For those in denial that think that the people will forget or embrace Obamacare, you have much to learn and will do so in the upcoming midterm elections. Obama has even acted in defiance of the American people by stating he welcomes the challenge from Republicans of repealing Obamacare.

Barack Obama has tried to sell his failed health care boondoggle to the people even after they passed the bill into law. Why, because the people cannot stand the government take over of health care and they do not trust the government.

The following CBS Poll shows that support for Obamacare continues to slide as The One goes out and tells the people how great it is. 53% of Americans disapprove of Obamacare, while only 32% approve. In fact, more people strongly disapprove of the Obamacare law as compared to those who actually approve.

The public is increasingly skeptical of the health care reform bill signed into law last week, a new CBS News poll shows.

More Americans now disapprove of the legislation, and many expect their costs to rise and the quality of their care to worsen; few expect the reforms to help them.

President Obama has continued to tour the country to stump for his new set of reforms. This week he went to Portland, Maine, where he told people it will take more than a week for the benefits of reform to become apparent.

Fifty-three percent of Americans say they disapprove of the new reforms, including 39 percent who say they disapprove strongly. In the days before the bill passed the House, 37 percent said they approved and 48 percent disapproved.

The average against Obamacare in the polling is now at +11.7 from Real Clear Politics.

The truth of the matter is that the more Obama tries and tell the American people that this health care law is good, the more oppose it. Even support from Democrats slipped in the most recent polling numbers.

As Hot Air stated, who would have thought that we have yet to see the basement for support of Obamacare?

The American people do not trust Obama’s words that health care will reduce costs and the deficit, nor should they.

When confronted with opposition from the American people, Obama and the Democrats basically disregarded the will of the people and went forward with this liberal, progressive suicide mission. Obama kept telling the people, you will like it. The fact of the matter is that “We the People” hate this reform and as the Strata-Sphere states, the “D” in Democrat will stand for DEFEAT come this Fall’s midterm elections.They seem to think we are heading for 1994 and the defeats that Democrats suffered that election year. I send to think the carnage will be even worse in 2010.

Thanks to Obama’s liberal tunnel vision, supported by the liberal madness of Congressional leaders in the House and Senate, it seems being a “D” in 2010 is going to be the mark of political Defeat in 2010. Polls are starting to come out showing just how big the backlash is brewing outside the beltway.  And I am not one of those buying the meme that a summer with no change in health care costs or upswing in economic activity is going to dissipate this wave. In my opinion this is just beginning to rise.

Sadly, Obama and his band of socialist, Marxist Democrats seem to not care one bit about further angering the American people as they have on their agenda “Cap & Tax” and “illegal Immigration” reform.

Come November, the American electorate will be so furious at Barack Obama and his socialist agenda of America that Democrats will pay a dear price in bother federal and state elections. The losses will be so sweeping and devastating in 2010 and 2012, that Democrats may never recover.

Gallup Has Republicans Moving Ahead in Midterm Congressional Elections

More bad polling data for Barack Hussein Obama and the Democrats as they continue to be in denial.

This time it is the Gallup Poll that is reporting that registered voters state they prefer Republican to the Democratic candidates in their district by 47% to 44% in this upcoming the midterm congressional election.

These results suggest the Republicans would have a strong showing if the midterm elections were held today. Since Republicans usually vote at higher rates than Democrats, the Republicans’ edge in voter preferences would likely exceed what the registered voter results indicate.

A Republican advantage among all registered voters in midterm elections has been rare in Gallup’s 60-year history of tracking congressional voting preferences, happening only a few times each in the 1950, 1994, and 2002 election cycles — all years in which Republicans had strong Election Day showings.

Democrats continue to tout that their pushing of health care reform against the will of the American people will benefit them in the upcoming midterm elections. Really? President Obama has even challenged Republicans to run on repealing Obamacare by challenging them to “Bring It On”. Don’t ask for things they might come true.  From the looks of this post-Obamacare poll it looks like “it has already been broughten”.  Every sign and indicator shows that a majority of the American people dislike what they Democrats are doing in Washington, yet the Donkey party continues to defy the people.

Even more troubling and what could conclude in landslide and sweeping election wins for Republicans this Fall in not only federal House and Senate races, but governor and State House elections as well is the tremendous advantage that Republicans have with the “Enthusiastic” factor. By a margin of  50% to 35%, Republicans are more energized than Democrats.

The Rasmussen Reports has Republicans ahead of Democrats in the Generic Congressional Ballot, 46% to 39%.

Pundits have asked whether the fever pitch of Republicans and Tea Party members could be sustained until the midterms. Personally, I see it getting even higher seeing that the Obama Administration is going to look and further poke at the “We the People” hornets nest and look to pass “Cap & Tax” and Illegal Immigration Amnesty against the will of the people.

See you in November … Democrats and some Republicans alike are going to learn a lesson in who works for who. Democrats like to talk about the historic Obamacare bill, wait until they see the historic loss of seats in an election, the likes that has never been seen.

North Dakota Senate Election 2010: GOP’s John Hoeven 68%, Democrat Potter 25%

With incumbent Democrat US Senator Byron Dorgan retiring, there appears to be nothing in the way between North Dakota Republican Governor John Hoeven and a trip to Washington, DC as North Dakota’s new Senator.  Although even if Dorgan had run, polling showed that he would have been easily defeated.

In the most recent Rasmussen poll, Hoeven leads his Democrat rival by an insurmountable 68% to 25% amount. Add one to the Republican pick up for Senate Republicans.

The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of likely voters in North Dakota shows Hoeven leading his Democratic opponent Tracy Potter 68% to 25% in their race for the U.S. Senate. Two percent (2%) prefer some other candidate, and five percent (5%) are undecided.

Hoeven posted a 71% to 17% lead over Potter, a state senator, in the first Rasmussen Reports Election 2010 survey of the race last month. Potter is expected to get his party’s endorsement for the Senate at its state convention this weekend.

Also in ND,  GOP nominee, State Representative Rick Berg, leads veteran Congressman Earl Pomeroy 51% to 44% in the race for North Dakota’s only House seat. Pomeroy voted for Obamacare and although it does not yet appear it has changed the poll numbers, it most likely will come back to haunt the Democrat incumbent in November.  58% of North Dakota voters oppose Obamacare, while only 36% favor it. Look for this House seat to flip Republican in the effort to unseat Speaker Pelosi and wrestle control from the Democrats.
