rushmc 23 #1 November 13, 2014 And the public wants the GOP to set the agenda! If Obama moves forward with his amnesty and his EPA executive orders, 2016 will be even MORE devestating to the Dems BTW I want the congress to stand up to him regarding these so called executive orders As I do not want ANY president to try and take that kind of power https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#safe=active&q=gop+congress+approval+rating+better+than+obama[url]"America will never be destroyed from the outside, if we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."

kallend 2,150 #4 November 13, 2014 There is no doubt that we have the best Congress that money can buy. I see that the Koch brothers are already calling for their payoff.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Funny thing however The dems are richer than the R's in washington If you think that the Dems are not playing to big money too, I got a few bridges to sell you might be interested in"America will never be destroyed from the outside, if we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."

kelpdiver 2 #6 November 13, 2014 pesky 4% margin of error....and you then tried to compare it to results of a separate poll. Never mind that the GOP Congress is still 2 months away. I'd also question the notion that 40% approval for anything is a sign of popularity. As for 2016...the GOP has one year in this next congress (before election mania stops all meaningful work) to show it actually can govern. Are they up to the task? Or will the normals and TP wackos spend it positioning against each other for the primaries? I expect them to dodge real work and instead focus on publicity votes to force Democratic fillibusters or vetoes, and then campaign on it. And that may work - up until 2017 when they will have no excuses for no output. Hopefully their horse won't be as lame as the last one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkyDekker 1,465 #7 November 13, 2014 This doesn't surprise me at all. Markets are at or near record highs. Corporate profites are near record highs Unemployment is under 6% 200,000 jobs per month getting added. Gas under $3.00 a gallon Oil production significantly increasing Oil imports significantly decreasing Defcit is starting to shrink Clearly things are going very wrong!!!
