There has been a lot of talk that President Obama might be open to some sort of deal to cut Social Security benefits. Well that is a very bad idea: President Barack Obama’s apparent willingness to consider cuts in Social Security benefits may be winning him points with Washington elites, but it’s killing him with […]
I’ve been reading more on that Gallup poll from yesterday that shows more Americans now supporting health care reform than opposing it. For a refresher, here’s the results: What’s interesting is the headline accompanying this poll: By Slim Margin, Americans Support Healthcare Bill’s Passage I don’t really remember pollsters considering a 9% margin “slim”. Perhaps […]
When there is a ton of finger pointing at the Democrats going on, it can only mean one thing – ELECTION DAY! Earlier today, the Hoffman campaign and conservative bloggers threw a fit over a very nefarious accusation: That somebody had slashed the tire of a Hoffman poll-watcher’s pickup truck. “Hoffman Poll Watcher Has Tires […]
So many pundits are asking where the landslide is in the presidential race. With the polls so close, it is raising the question even more. David Brooks latest article even asks this: Why isn’t Barack Obama doing better? Why, after all that has happened, does he have only a slim two- or three-point lead over […]
Are polls off due to the increased popularity in people having cell phones only? This is interesting, and the younger generation seem more into the cell-phone only way of living now. This is Obama’s key demographic also. Perhaps the pollsters need to reevaluate their way of polling. I guess they couldn’t run a poll asking […]

So the big story of the day is how Hillary ended up winning last night, despite all the polls showing Obama would win it. It’s interesting how the media’s predictions totally fall flat and give them a new day full of news. One very interesting point to make. This morning on MSNBC they were blaming […]
According to one of the GOP’s most prominent pollsters, this very well could be the case: The recent White House shake-up was an attempt to jump-start the administration and boost President Bush’s rock-bottom approval ratings, but have those efforts come too late to salvage the presidency? A prominent GOP pollster thinks that may be the […]
Rasmussen polling has a new poll out that is putting Bush at a 46% approval rating. This of course is sending the pundits into a glory spin.Newsmax has already picked up on this poll and is calling it Bush’s rebound. So why does Rasmussen put Bush so high. Well let’s look at the break down […]
Have Americans gotten tired of the lies involving Iraq? In a poll released yesterday by the Washington Post and ABC news, support for the war in Iraq is at an all time low and so are the President’s approval ratings. Bush’s approval rating has dropped to 52%, and the Republican parties has dropped to an […]
