Republican voters grow while registered democrats shrink

[MiddleClass]

and what happened in IOWA? i heard dem's are leaving in groves there to join the independents.

Only so they can vote in the Republican Primary. As in New Hampshire as well. That happens every Presidential primary Season. Nothing new there

 

[Baruch Menachem]

Comes from leaving the Democrats in the hot water too long.

It is normal for this stage of the political process, especially when the president is very unpopular.

(It does seem to be that his gallup numbers must be improving, I haven't seen any neener neener threads about them sinking lately)

GOP Memo Admits Plan Could 'Keep Black Vote Down' - Los Angeles Times

 

[Cammmpbell]

Fat and Lazy vs Lean and Mean.

Mean is right.

What the hell. Don't like being lied about. Like the Party of Nixon, Gingrich and DeLay has anything to complain about!

Nixon was the biggest crook in the history of American politics and I voted for the bastard three times. That was the beginning of the end of my life as a Republican. Reagan finished it off.

The Republican party used to stand for small government, individual rights and balanced budgets. Now they are totally in the hands of corporations and the wealthy.

George W. Bush doubled the national debt and expanded government by 15% in two terms. I won't even go into what he did to individual rights.

 

[Truthmatters]

the republican party has a long history of keeping Americans from voting

 

[paulitician]

I think the Democrats have fallen off the Socialist/Progressive wingnut cliff. Most Americans do not support their agenda. I think Most Americans want to get back to real Conservative principles. Now we just need the Republican Party to give them a real Conservative.

The only numbers that matter will register next November. Republicans will take back the Senate and hold on to the House, picking up a few more seats. America has seen the ugly and warped face of liberalism.. it's nothing more than socialism dressed up in class envy. America is about opportunity and freedom. Liberals are about robbing the taxpayer in order to fund their socialist agenda. Bottom line, liberalism is out.

"socialism dressed up in class envy." I like that. Perfectly stated.

Why do conservatives always have to invoke class warfare?

That my friend is the most insane remark I've ever heard.

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

I wonder how many Democrats are changing their party affiliation in hopes of sabotaging the GOP primaries.

Exactly what I was thinking. It's why I don't approve of open primaries.

If it's an open primary you don't have to change your registration.

Daily Presidential Tracking Poll - Rasmussen Reports™

The number of Republicans in the country inched up half a percentage point last month while the number of Democrats slipped by a similar amount. Overall, 34.3% of Americans now consider themselves to be Republicans while 33.1% are Democrats.

that happens in a country where 70% of the population doesn't believe in evolution. though i wouldn't go doing the happy dance over 1/2 of 1 percentage point. why don't you see what happens when the people you don't want to register to vote DO register.

funny ... you left this part of rasmussen's poll out: (and we won't even get into the validity of rasmussen polls).

i kind of think obama kicking cain's butt by 5% points even in this economy (and even in a rasmussen poll) is noteworthy.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey of Likely U.S. Voters shows the president picking up 43% of the vote to Cain’s 38%.

Why did you stop at 2009?

I want to give you a little eye opener. When Obama took over he was handed a wrecked economy bleeding 750,000 jobs a month and an annual interest payment on Reagan and the Bushes debt of about half a trillion dollars. What was he supposed to do...stop spending? You didn't think Chinese banks were loaning us a trillion dollars interest free did you? $11,000,000,000,000 isn't much money. It couldn't be. In Bush's first staff meeting Cheney said, "The Debt Doesn't Matter...Reagan Proved That"

Well sports fans...that ignorant son-of-a-***** was wrong. The debt might not matter but the interest on it does. $500,000,000,000 may not seem like a lot of money to Republicans but here's what we spend each year for highway construction and repair...$100,000,000,000 and less than that on education.

Face it...borrowing money from foreign banks to fund tax cuts for the wealthy is the most stupid thing a political party has ever done. It was never done until Mr Reagan and Bush 41 did it and then proceeded to quadruple the national debt. George W. Bush took over a surplus with the entire debt on track to be paid off by 2012. Guess what he did? Tax cuts in 2001 and 2003 and proceeded to double the national debt again during two terms.

Because the rich pay a major portion of taxes what big tax cuts do is the equivalent of borrowing money from foreign banks, turning around and handing it the wealthiest Americans.

If you can't understand that we can't communicate.
