The Revolution of 2010
February 11, 2010 - 11:27 am
This poll will come as no surprise: Americans don't like the direction the Obama Administration is "leading" the country.
You can see the report here, which in part says: "An overwhelming number (88%) of Republicans and 74% of unaffiliated voters believe the nation is heading down the wrong track. Only 10% of Republicans are confident in the nation’s current course. The latest findings echo the pessimism Republican and unaffiliateds have felt for months.
"Democrats are more closely divided on this question: 56% say right direction, while 36% say wrong track."
One of my political ninja friends in Las Vegas tells me that a private poll finished in the last few days shows that Clark Country residents are equally upset with the direction of Nevada and Clark County. We have a "mighty upset town, state and country right now."
Like I said, none of this will come as a surprise ... except to incumbent officeholders. The Revolution of 2010 will come to them this November.
Which, by the way, reminds me that if and when President Obama decides to visit Las Vegas, it's going to be interesting to see what kind of photo-ops are set up for existing Democrat incumbents. Standing on the same platform as this president may not be the best political idea anymore.
