Until this translates into votes, it means absolutely nothing. Trust the gop? What is there to trust? What ideas are the so-called 'trustees' putting stock in??:rolleyes::rolleyes:
Just curious, how do you account for these polls? Have you ever found any faults with your party?

[Carol25]

See post #2, and I don't have a party. Please answer my questions, s'il vous plait!

That is the intriguing part. Will these people even vote or think the problem in representatives of other states and not theirs?

Pourquoi écrivez-vous du français ? Essayez-vous d'être le supérieur à d'autres sur ce conseil ?

What I find interesting - if they trust the republicans - why don't they vote for them? Haven't seen too many republicans winning elections lately. Must be in the definition of a "likely voter"

Give it time dref. Remember Obama came into this representing change and the American people were so desperate for it, they voted based on his campaign controlling the message coupled with his charisma. We are getting a taste of the real message as we see the big plan emerging IMO. I know more than a few people who admit they regret voting blindly. Time will tell.

The approval rating of Congress is a gentle reminder as well IMO.

Americans are not stupid, change can not happen until Democrats have 60 votes, it almost happened last election, I think it will definitely happen next election thanks to the party of NO

Lisa, there are 59 Democratic Senators, 1 Independent who usually votes Democratic and 40 Republicans. Whats to prevent the Dems from passing anything except for the Dem Moderates and conservative who have the balance of power and choose not to go along for the Left Wing ride? The Dems have an overwhelming majority. Bring this thing to a vote and lets see what happens.

Because they dont have Lieberman or Snowe on board.
