Fox News Poll- Incumbent Republicans Are In Trouble

February 2nd, 2010

FOX News Poll: In 2010 Elections,

[Republican] Incumbents Beware

February 5, 2010

By Ernie Paicopolos  - FOXNews.com

Americans dispense just about as much disdain for Republicans (42 percent favorable; 46 percent unfavorable) as Democrats (42 percent favorable; 48 percent unfavorable), according to a Fox News poll released Friday.

As Americans look ahead to the mid-term elections, anything new is preferable to anything old, — such as an incumbent.  And despite recent Republican wins in Massachusetts, Virginia and New Jersey, this is not necessarily good news for Republicans.  

Americans dispense just about as much disdain for Republicans (42 percent favorable; 46 percent unfavorable) as Democrats (42 percent favorable; 48 percent unfavorable), according to a Fox News poll released Friday.

On the other hand, the new kid on the block — the Tea Party Movement — fares better (35 percent favorable; 22 percent unfavorable), although more than four of 10 voters are unable to give an opinion or say they have never heard of the group.

The real dynamic seems to be a revolt against insiders — as voters say they would choose a challenger over an incumbent by a two-to-one margin (38 percent to 19 percent).

Nearly all voters express some degree of interest in the November midterms, although significantly more Republicans (38 percent) than Democrats (22 percent) say they are “extremely” interested.

Moreover, Republicans (41 percent) have a slim edge over Democrats (36 percent) on a generic Congressional ballot, if the election were held today.  

The key bloc of independent voters is tougher on Republicans (33 percent favorable; 46 percent unfavorable) than Democrats (40 percent favorable; 42 percent unfavorable).  Despite their less positive view of the GOP, independents favor the Republican candidate in the generic ballot by a 9-percentage point margin (32 percent to 23 percent).

In the recent state elections where Republicans scored upset victories, the poll finds more voters see those results as “sending a message” to President Obama and Democrats (59 percent) than as an affirmation of the particular candidates and issues in those races (22 percent).

Republicans just happen to be the carriers of that message right now.  The GOP should take note that, despite having served in office over a year, Barack Obama is more likely to be viewed as a Washington outsider (48 percent) than one of those unfashionable insiders (37 percent).

Politicians of both parties had better take the Tea Party movement seriously, if for no other reason than voters see it as a legitimate phenomenon.  About half of voters (51 percent) think the Tea Party Movement is a “serious” group of people who believe government is too big and taxes are too high.  One voter in five (20 percent) thinks Tea Partiers are on the “fringe” of politics with extreme right-wing views, while about a quarter (24 percent) is undecided.

The national telephone poll was conducted for Fox News by Opinion Dynamics Corp. among 900 registered voters from February 2 to February 3, 2010.  The poll has a 3-point sampling error margin.

Dr. Stan Cooke VS Spencer Bachus - The Battle For Real American Values

January 29th, 2010

Dr. Stan Cooke VS Spencer Bachus

The Battle For Real American Values

 

 

The Republican Primary Election of June - 2010 will define the Republican Party in Alabama for years to come. At stake are real American values, lower taxes, less regulation, reduced Federal spending, smaller government, State’s Rights and the Constitution of the United States.

 

The differences between me and my opponent, Spencer Bachus, could not be more obvious. I have always been a true conservative Republican and I have never wavered from the American values that has shaped that political philosophy. Mr. Bachus on the other hand has a 17+ year record in Congress of claiming to be a conservative but voting like a liberal democrat. To prove this point, examine how Spencer Bachus sponsored, co-sponsored and/or voted for the following legislation.

 

1. Global Poverty Act - Cost To Tax-payers - $845 Billion Dollars. U.S. Dollars to be given to the United Nations. Co-sponsored by Spencer Bachus and Barack Obama.

3. TARP- Troubled Asset Relief Program - Cost to Tax-payers- $ 700 Billion Dollars.

U.S. Dollars Given to designated Banks and Financial Institutions. Co-sponsored and voted for by Spencer Bachus. Spencer Bachus has received campaign contributions from the banks and financial institutions that received the TARP Bailout Money.

4. Serve America Act - Cost To Tax-payers - $6 Billion Dollars The bill reauthorizes and expands the AmeriCorps program first established in 1993. Gives President Obama major control of the funding and organizational structure of the AmeriCorps volunteer program. Bachus co-sponsored the bill and voted for it.

 5. Car Allowance Rebate System [Cash for Clunkers] Cost to Tax-payers - $3 Billion Dollars. A Federal scrapping program intended to provide economic incentives to U.S. residents to purchase a new, more fuel-efficient vehicle when trading in a less fuel-efficient vehicle. The program was promoted as providing stimulus to the economy by boosting auto sales, while putting safer, cleaner and more fuel-efficient vehicles on the roadways. Spencer Bachus Voted for this bill.

 6. Education For All Act (2007) Cost to Tax-payers - $3 Billion Dollars

The Education For All Act would improve facilities, train teachers, provide lunch programs and empower foreign countries that are placing a priority on education. Money given to poor nations and not to education programs in the United States.

Spencer Bachus co-sponsored this bill with Senators Hillary Clinton (D-NY) and Gordon Smith (R-OR) and Representatives Nita Lowey (D-NY).

 The Total Cost to the American Tax-payer of these 6 bills voted for by Spencer Bachus

is $1,557,980,000,000.00 [1 Trillion, 557 Billion, 980 Million Dollars]

 We cannot afford another 2 years of Spencer Bachus in Congress. It is time for new leadership in Washington D.C.
