[B]CNN Poll: More Americans trust Obama on economy over Republicans in
Congress [/B]

In a new CNN/ORC poll, more Americans say they trust President Obama on
economic matters more than they do Republicans in Congress. The survey
released on Wednesday shows that a large majority like most of the major
proposals offered in the plan that was sent to Congress Monday.

“By a 43-35 percent margin, a plurality of Americans approve of the
economic program Obama outlined in his speech to Congress last week”
says CNN Polling Director Keating Holland.

And most of the nation agree that stimulating employment is more
important right now than reducing the federal budget, as two-thirds
believe that creating jobs should take precedence over the federal
budget deficit and only 29 percent say reducing the deficit should be
more important that reducing unemployment.

I think this quote in the CNN poll says it all:

The survey released on Wednesday shows that although a lot of Americans are still unsure what’s in the president’s new jobs bill,

Yeah--speeches--speeches--speeches--NOW wait until they know what's in this bill--taxing income over 200K--elimination of the mortgage interest rate deduction--and the addition of another Federal Government agency. IOW--raising taxes on the middle class--another expensive Federal Government agency that we don't need--and borrowing more money to fund more bridge and road work--that has already more than proven doesn't work.

How is the middle class's taxes going up? The mortgage interest rate deduction elimination only applies to those making 200-250K and up.
