Republicans Prove Unpopular With Voters Against Obama in Poll

Here’s something Lefty blogs and Obots can hang their hats on.

But, it’s my opinion that you don’t have to be popular to get the job done.

The opposite is clearly true and Obama is the proof.

Bloomberg reports that Republican attacks on President Barack Obama’s policies are resonating with voters, even as many Americans give a thumbs-down to the party and some of its specific ideas, a Bloomberg National Poll shows.

Three weeks before the midterm elections, Republicans maintain a position of strength due to the commitment of their supporters and the likelihood they will vote.

The general Republican message of less spending, lower taxes and repeal of the health-care overhaul is connecting.

Pluralities of those polled support overturning the health-care measure -- Obama’s signature legislative accomplishment -- and back the “Pledge to America” that offers a road map for how Republicans would govern if they win congressional majorities.

Still, the poll suggests voters aren’t embracing Republicans as much as they are rejecting Democrats.

In the Bloomberg Poll, nearly half of likely voters -- 49 percent -- said they had an unfavorable view of the Republicans. Democrats have a narrow advantage on favorability, 47 percent to 45 percent.
