Democrats want to keep this going for as long as possible to deflect attention away from the Communism they are pushing on us.

They also think they can tear us apart by keeping a scab from forming over the cut.

What we really need is to ensure REAL conservatives take back the Republican Party as history has proved that when we run on a truly conservative platform we win and when we try to be Democrat-Lite we get our heads handed to us.

The blue-blood Republicans that infest our Party now don't mind losing as long as the proper bones are thrown to them now and then to keep them in their money and their limited stations of power. They could care less about real conservatism nor the real conservatives who make up the backbone of this country.

Polls don’t matter to Rush, ratings do; and his is skyrocketing over what the Left is doing now (LOL)!

Carville is scuttling around again. He is like a bad smell.

Snake Head is like a fart that lingers and lingers and lingers.

Soros is a drag on the Jack Ass Party. I hope this becomes evident in 2010,

This is a simple example of the divide and conquer strategy. The Democrats are trying to provoke a battle between Rush and the Republicans. The Democrats will try to play one group against the other. Our country is being destroyed by the Democrats. This is just one more more tactic in the battle to keep good Americans weak and defenseless while our way of life is threatened.

Democrats throwing gasolene on a fire, how unusual. /s

Democrat poll, democrat organizations, democrat media,
equals total nonsense.

Remember kids, “Just because it says democrat doesn’t mean
its democratic!”.

They have slipped into a new tactic. Now they are polling the misinformed; knowing very well they will give them the results they want.

Here is an anecdote that shows who are the vast legion of misinformed Kool-Aid drinkers in the electorate:

I was walking past a liberal coworker the other day and he called out to me: “Hey, how do you like what Bush did to the economy? The stock market started going down the minute he was elected.”
I asked if he was serious and started telling him that the stock market started going down nine months after the Democrats took over the Congress, January 2007. As I made my statement, my coworker started making these animal sounds and “I'm not listening” comments.

I stopped talking and later that day, I produced for him a ten year graph of the stock market. He took it and dropped it in the garbage can and said, “I'm not even going to look at something that came from some Republican web page.”

Rahm Emanuel strategist James Carville founded Democracy Corps, a Democrat Party affiliate.

This is a Rahm Emanuel faux news (disinformaion) report.

“Me too” dems.
If Republicans behave like democrats, why do we need two parties?

On today's program, Rush cited new Arbitron cume numbers for the first few months of '09.

His audience is up 32%.

His advertising revenue is up 13% over last year's same time frame (1st quarter).

Those are the only polls that matter in this situation.

All this pool demonstrates is the media is effective and corrupt.

There’s no doubt...he’s a huge drag for the liberal wing of the party. Which is the part that needs to be drug to the bottom of the sea to rot.

Rush is my representative!

This memo is based on a national survey of 1,000 2008 voters, including 170 interviewed on cell phones (120 unweighted) and 830 likely 2010 voters (863 unweighted), conducted for Democracy Corps by Greenberg Quinlan Rosner March 5-8, 2009.

Yup, Democracy Corp. You are right to question the poll.

... putting Republican leaders and their party's conservative base voters out of sync with not only Democrats and independents, but even the bloc of moderate Republicans.

When have conservatives EVER been *in sync* with moderates?? Typical *make news* poll.

Turtle-head not only looks like a fool.

Drudge has a nice little link up to a “news conference” turtle-head and greenburg were having just before muslims ran airlines into Twin Towers on 9/11 and these two fools were saying the wanted Bush to Fail and were orchestrating their polls to influence Americans to agree. The moment the 9/11 news came out they told the press to “forget we just said that”. It took 7 1/2 years for Fox News to find it. No good timing for nobama and his lil buddie turtle-head’s attack on Rush.
