Rasmussen: Americans want to start over with Congress

[Willie99]

The Rasmussen Consumer Index, a daily measure of economic confidence, shows that both consumer and investor confidence has dipped slightly since Congress passed the financial bailout bill on Friday. If people could vote on whether to keep or replace the entire Congress, just 17% would vote to keep them and 59% would replace the entire Congress and start over again.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now we know they want to take out their frustrations on the Republican candidate for President, as that trend in the polls that started when Lehman Brothers failed continues today, but why aren't incumbents trailing nationwide?

Both consumer and investor confidence has fell even after the bailout bill has passed.

"but why aren't incumbents trailing nationwide?"
Give it 2 weeks.

The Rasmussen Reports daily Tracking Poll for Mon. for Obama all time high.

Monday, October 06, 2008.

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Monday shows Barack Obama attracting 52% of the vote while John McCain earns 44%. This is the highest level of support ever recorded for Obama and is his largest lead of the year. It also continues a remarkable twenty-five days in a row where the Democrat’s support has never declined by even a single point. The Democratic candidate has gained six full percentage points of support since Lehman Brothers collapsed to start the Wall Street mess.

The Democratic candidate has gained six full percentage points of support since Lehman Brothers collapsed to start the Wall Street mess.

This could easily be changed to:

The Democratic candidate has gained six full percentage points of support since McCain said the fundamentals of the economy was strong.
​

For McCain, THAT was the day the music died.

No one wants to lose their free stuff. There was a quote that said that a democracy will only last until the voting public discovers they can vote themselves money from the treasury.
