Study: Only 15 Percent Of Democrats Believe Economic News Is Bad
CBS DC ^ | 9/20/2012

WASHINGTON (CBSDC) – With just 47 days before the general election and Mitt Romney attempting to pivot the focus of the election back on the state of the economy, citizens with Democratic leanings are actually doing an about-face on the economy compared to their Republican counterparts, according to a recent study from the Pew Research Center.

New data found that just 15 percent of Democrats believe that recent economic news is mostly poor, a percentage that took a significant drop from the 31 percent of Democrats polled last month who did think that economic news was mostly bad. According to the study, the 15-percent clip is among the lowest percentages during President Barack Obama’s nearly four years in office.

Only 85% of Democrats are the idiots I thought they were. I actually thought it would have been closer to 98%.

It’s a good economy if you’re on welfare and food stamps. B-P

That’s because 85% of Democrats are on the public teat and have never had it so good. Worries about the economy are for those private sector taxpayer serfs.

this is because the vast majority of admitted Democrats either: 1) don’t work, have no plans to do so, and are on public assistance of some sort; 2) are employed by the federal government which never lays anyone off and pays them much more money than their civilian counterparts with OUR tax money; and 3) are members of unions like the UAW which receive taxpayer money or money diverted from bondholders to stay afloat or are employed by Tax-drainage bankrupts like Solyndra or the Chevy Volt program, aka the Chicago friends of this Administration. Of course, they and George Stephanopoulous think the economy is good - they live off the rest of us!

either the welfare benefits are much higher than we’ve been told (quite possible), or else the new Transformational Redistributive Entitlements include some really strong Weed...

Why would someone care about the national unemployment rate when their family unemployment rate has been 100% for generations?
