In a hypothetical general election match-up against Mitt Romney, a new Pew Research poll finds President Obama wins the Latino vote by a 68% to 23% margin.
These results are quite similar to the outcome of the 2008 presidential election, when Obama carried the Latino vote over Sen. John McCain by 67% to 31%
Hypothetically, Mondale was supposed to beat Reagan, too, right? Well, with that, I fully trust any poll you show me. |

Democrats Take Lead in Congressional Ballot
A new Democracy Corps poll shows that, for the first time in two years, Democrats are winning the generic congressional ballot, 47% to 44%, the result of a major shift among independents.
Key finding: "Two-thirds of all voters now say they disapprove of this Republican Congress and its approval rating has hit a new low in our tracking -- 26%. The decline has come from a complete drop-off of those who 'strongly approve' of this Republican Congress -- down to 8%, also the lowest in our tracking." |

Obama Seeks to Merge Agencies President Barack Obama is seeking the power to merge agencies in a bid to shrink the federal government. Obama will ask Congress to give him authority to consolidate six trade and commerce agencies that have overlapping programs, cutting up to 2,000 jobs and saving $3 billion over 10 years. He'll call for a vote by Congress within 90 days. |

WOW!!! That's great! $3 billion over 10 years. That will almost pay for 1 day worth of new debt the federal government accumulates. A real fiscal hawk that Obama. |

Yea it would... but still wouldn't come close to paying for that Optional Oil War In Iraq. In fact to pay for that disaster, Obama would have to save $1 billion a year for a hundred years, and the Iraq war would still not be paid off. |

So you don't pay for the debt because a previous president accumulated it? That's an interesting concept. So the next president doesn't have to be fiscallly responsible since he/she isn't responsible for the debt accumulated under the Obama Administration? |

Let's see... In the four years since Obama took office: ~ the stock market has gone up 54%, ~ corporate profits are at all-time highs and ~ taxes are at historic lows. America simply can't take much more of Obama's socialism. |

YUP! Again tell me so I'll remember it this time.... PLEASE NAME THE REPUBLICAN HOUSE JOBS BILLS??? It's not like the Republicans were just sitting idol in the House... they did work on a whole slew of bills... BUT NO JOBS BILL! What did the Republicans find MORE IMPORTANT THAN AMERICAN JOBS??? Agenda of course: ~ H.R. 2Repealing the Health Care Law Act, Jan. 19 ~ H.R. 1, Full-Year Continuing Appropriations Act (amendments include: defunding the EPA, czars, Obamacare and Planned Parenthood.) Feb. 18 ~ H.R. 3, No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act, May 4 ~ H.CON.RES.34 Ryan Budget Bill (lowering taxing for wealthy, dismantling Medicare), Apr. 11 ~ H.R. 1363, One-week budget bill (with Planned Parenthood, EPA and NPR defunding riders), Apr. 7 ~ H.R. 910, Energy Tax Prevention Act (a.k.a. Stop EPA bill), Apr. 7 ~ H.R. 359, Eliminate public finance, Jan. 26 (OH COME ON... THE REPUBLICANS MUST HAVE DONE SOMETHING... SOME JOBS BILL) ~ H.R. 217, to Defund Planned Parenthood, Feb. 21 ~ H.R. 1076, Defund NPR (this was an emergency vote), Mar. 15. ~ H.R. 1213, To repeal mandatory funding provided to States in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, May 3 ~ H.R. 1217, to repeal the Prevention and Public Health Fund, Apr. 13 Eliminating Planned Parenthood was important... Defunding NPR & EPA was important... Dismantling Medicare and Medicaid was important... But JOBS??? NOPE. |
