I know it seems like I’m harping on Tom Carper’s unholy sucki-tude, but when Democratic economic polices LOSE OUT to Republican policies that have done nothing but fail for the past twenty years, you have to realize that Democratic turncoats and traitors to the middle class like Tom Carper are having a pretty big impact.
A new poll has some disturbing news for Democrats: the country defers to Republicans rather than Democrats when it comes to the economy.
That finding is according to a new Economic Media Project study conducted by Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research on behalf of the Democratic-leaning Democracy Corps. The research said that, despite Democrats having a 5-point partisan identification advantage over Republicans, more people (43 percent to 38 percent) think Republicans have a better handle on the economy than Democrats. That’s “a 10 point deficit based on the presumptive partisan orientation,” the memo from the study said.
“The public really has pulled back from Democrats on the economy,” the memo said.
The study’s findings went on to say that conservatives don’t dominate the issue but liberals are still trailing them.
“The progressive-liberal economic approach centered on creating full employment, raising in-comes at every level, and public investment stands only at parity with a conservative approach that stresses reductions in the size of government and level spending, cutting taxes, and making entrepreneurship easier,” the memo said. “Conservatives are not dominating this space, but liberals must begin to win these debates in order to have a real impact on policy change.”
