Progressives have attempted to take advantage of the Newton massacre. Obama and his cronies have used anti-gun rhetoric. But the reality is that it was just talk. A new poll shows a majority of Americans oppose a ban on Handguns and the so called “assault” weapons.

 

Although this same Gallup poll shows that a majority favor new guns laws, this is an abstract question. Gun Control is not a winning issue and the Democrats know this. Only if the Republicans show signs of “compromise’ aka caving in, will the Obama Regime attempt to pass new laws.

Both parties would be playing with fire with they attempt any gun control measure.

Guns = Freedom!

The Progressive media has pushed the theme that the GOP Congress is heavily unpopular. They have been smeared as Rightwing Extremists, despite the fact Speaker John Boehner is a Liberal Republican. The conventional wisdom is that the GOP will suffer losses in the House but hang onto control. Well a new USA Today/Gallup poll shows this may not be the case. Republicans lead Democrats in the generic ballot 50%-44%

For the first time during this campaign cycle, the GOP has an advantage in congressional elections. By 50%-44%, those surveyed say they’re likely to vote for the Republican congressional candidate. The two parties were tied in the USA TODAY Poll in February, and Democrats had a 7-point advantage last August.

If these numbers were to hold, the GOP would actually make gains in the House. Clearly Americans don’t want Pelosi as Speaker again. It looks like emphasizing Gay Marriage isn’t working out for the Democrats.

Gallup has a new poll showing the trouble Obama is in. He now is tied or slightly ahead of Rick Perry, Mitt Romney, Michele Bachmann and even the dreaded and sinister: Ron Paul! You read that correctly, Ron Paul is competitive with Obama. Despite these numbers one thing sticks out. Obama’s approval is at 40% in Gallup, but his re-elect numbers are in the 47-48% range.

Read the rest: Obama in Close Race Against Romney, Perry, Bachmann, Paul

This poll needs to be viewed with a grain of salt. We are still 13 months out till the 2012 Presidential election. Much can happen and the fact Obama is polling 7-8% more than his approval is worrisome. That said, this is not a good result for Obama.

One person who will sleep over this poll is Charles Johnson. With Ron Paul in a virtual tie with Obama, his nightmare of a Paulian regime is close to reality

 

Americans give Republicans edge over Democrats on major issues

Just 2 years ago, Barack Hussein Obama and the Democrats where swept in a landslide.  Americans at the time rejected the Bush/McCain Compassionate Conservatism, which was Progressivism with a Conservative face. The Progressive Movement was riding high and now in one of the biggest changes in American politics, it’s on the verge of collapse. On almost every major issue, the Republicans are leading Democrats for the first time in years in the  Gallup poll.

PRINCETON, NJ — A new USA Today/Gallup poll finds Americans saying the Republicans in Congress would do a better job than the Democrats in Congress of handling seven of nine key election issues. The parties are essentially tied on healthcare, with the environment being the lone Democratic strength.

Clearly the Republicans have the advantage and this finding confirms a similar one done by Rasmussen. The issue driving people towards the GOP is the Economy. This same poll shows the Economy is voters #1 concern.

The economy the issue that Americans care about. It’s about jobs, financial security and money in people’s pocket. The Republicans should hammer the Democrats on the economy from now towards election days. As James Carville said “It’s the economy stupid” and he was right. Now let’s use it as a club to clobber the Progressives. This issue in conjunction with the Progressives and their  collaboration with Islamic Imperialists over the 9/11 Ground Zero Mosque is what will lead our side the victory.

If the Republican do get power, they must never again govern as Progressives. If they go leftists and appeasing Islamic Colonialists like they did under the Bush years, then a new Conservative party will emerge. They are being given another chance, they better not blow it!

Update: What gives hope for the GOP this time around are the young guns like Eric Cantor and Paul Ryan. They are aggressive and demolished Barack Hussein Obama at the Health Care debate.

Washington’s chattering class zeroed in Tuesday on a potential but still nonexistent leadership battle between House Minority Leader John Boehner and Minority Whip Eric Cantor after members of the press received their advance copies of the latter’s new book, “Young Guns: A New Generation of Conservative Leaders.” While the book may indeed elevate Cantor, who co-authored the book with Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan and California Rep. Kevin McCarthy, its title couldn’t make its purpose any clearer – the trio sets out to prove that there’s a new Republican Party emerging that’s younger, bolder and more diverse.

Boehner has given two major policy addresses in as many weeks to go toe to toe with President Obama as he sets the stage for a possible speakership that would make him his party’s official foil to the Democratic commander in chief. On Tuesday, Boehner addressed the 92nd American Legion National Convention in Milwaukee about the end of combat operations in Iraqas a precursor to Obama’s speech later in the evening. At the same time, about a dozen reporters in the Beltway had just finished combing through Young Guns and found only limited references to Boehner and took that to mean the Ohioan is on the outs.

But the book is less a preview of a leadership battle as it is a forced rebirth.

Personally I hope Eric Cantor challenges John Boehner for the Speaker position, should Republicans win the House. Boehner is an elitis Progressive Republican who needs to get out the way. Imagine House Speaker Eric Cantor and Majority leaders Paul Ryan! Barack Hussein Obama would have nightmares over that one!

Update III:Political analyst Larry Sabato has the The Republicans winning the house, winning 8-9 in the Senate and 8 governorships.

Let’s keep up the pressure!
