Answer 1

The only reason the dems got the nod in the last legislative elections was because the Republicans pissed the Conservative base off and they with held their votes.So the dems took majority by default not because they were the better choice.The Conservative base is the largest voting block in America and they will not let dems run the table for ever.It is certain that the republicans are getting the message that they screwed up and need to get their act together.The next president will be a Conservative one weather he or she is republican or not,but dems don't have the #'s to pull it off.

Answer 2

You’re misreading the results. I, for instance, am not happy with Congress. There are still too many Republicans in Congress and they’re preventing the Democrats from doing anything worthwhile. Also, the Democrats will have to stand firmer against Bush on Iraq in the future.

There is no way that the Republicans can win the presidency in 2008. None of the Blue States will vote Republican, after the disaster of the Bush presidency, and all the Democrats need is another fairly large state like Ohio. That’s the reality of the situation and, unless something really drastic happens, the next president will be a Democrat.

Answer 3

If you're talking about Congress, that is neither here nor there. There are Republicans in Congress too, and when the numbers are broken out their disapproval rating is higher than the Democrats. So you might not want to trot that out anytime soon.

As far as Presidential, your hopes are also dashed. For instance, the new Gallup Poll (taken from June 11-14) shows Hillary Clinton beating Rudy Giuliani 50% to 46%.
But the Gallup Poll before that one (taken from June 1-3) showed Giuliani in front of Clinton 52% to 45%. It seems the shift is toward a Democratic victory, not a Republican victory.
This is the case in every matchup between a Democrat and a Republican. The numbers have moved in the Democrat's favor, not the Republicans.

EDIT: Yep, G, I found it and took a look at it. Use my link, it will show you the poll.

EDIT: I read the article and I've seen the poll. If there is a NEW poll coming out tomorrow (Thursday) then we'll see it then. You're not making much sense. Here is an excerpt directly from the Gallup Poll article:

"Gallup has run several trial heats this year between Clinton and Giuliani -- the front-runners for their respective parties' nominations -- based on national polling numbers, and this is {{{{{{{the first poll in which Giuliani does not have a slight edge over Clinton."}}}}}}}

EDIT: Okay, I went to Gallup today, on T-H-U-R-S-D-A-Y, and the only thing new is an article about declining approval rates on Congress. I read it, and it changes nothing. Congress disapproval rates are for Republicans as well as Democrats. Nothing new to learn here from Gallup, even though it's T-H-U-R-S-D-A-Y lol.

Answer 4

You are almost as good at reading polls as Dubya.
Where does this say there is a move back to Republicans.
Bothering to look properly at recent polls still show Dems in front for the congress and white house in 2008.
As for the Dems "no plan" the entire political debate at the moment is about democrat led ideas. You may not agree with them but it is Dems putting forward the issues - from troop withdrawl, to universal healthcare, to stem cell research, to amnesty. All leftist issues.
The only "policy" the Republicans can unite on is to keep fighting an unwinnable war - and many are wavering on this.
It is this sort of denial that got you such a severe pants kicking in 2006. And since the likes of you seem determined not to learn anything from it - 2008 just looks easier every day.

Answer 5

Well, the thing is, there are a lot of Re-Pubs in that governmental body as well no?

Its true though, the Democratic in-fighting and celebratory high-five like mentality after election day victory left a bad taste in the mouths of moderates like myself. They, in essence, completely missed the ball when given a chance to govern.

However, I do not interpret these results as meaning there is a shift back to a Re-Pub majority.

EDIT: excellent post Elway

Answer 6

Here's what I see happening....

We, the people are going to throw them ALL out and bring in totally new people......

The Republicans won't take the Oval Office for a long time. The worst scandals and corruption for the last 25 years have all been under a Republican president; Nixon, Reagan and the current idiot.

Answer 7

has anyone seen the ACTUAL POLL?

I've seen two Republicans ask multiple questions based on a blog... with no actual poll... and the only poll I can find of the Gallup website (that is referenced in the blog) doesn't agree with the blog's numbers and is in fact, far off?

were's the facts?

and your google search turned up nothing...

I'm wondering about the one that had dems at 14 percent, like his first blog cite said? I can't find that one anywhere? I didn't see it on pollingreport either?

EDIT: so, you're talking about something that we don't even have yet?

typical...

Answer 8

Loyalty to a party is part of a screw up system...once you blindly follow any political party, that's when the party starts taking you for granted. So no matter how you feel you should never give up your loyalty so easy and blindly. That will plant the seeds of doubt in the political party's leaders mind and then they will never take your vote for granted again. Once they feel they have your vote locked up...then they compromise their values to secure others in their coalition and you will be lost in the mess.

Answer 9

How about this instead of voting this next time around we revolt? Toss out the Private bank named the Federal Reserve, utilize executive order 11110 and back our money with a tangible like Silver. Put the people back in power instead of buying into this absurd lie of Dems and Reps being cut from a different cloth.

Answer 10

Nope, it actually shows voters are upset, at the remaining republicans that keep blocking attempts to get Bush under control.
but keep cheering about it if you wish, it helps promote a rerun of the last election.

in otherwords, America is realizing that they allowed too many republicans to keep their seats.
