Rasmussen: Conservative Anger Against Obamacare Hitting 'Stratospheric Levels'
Newsmax ^ | 7/2/12 | Paul Scicchitano and Kathleen Walter

Posted on 07/02/2012 4:39:50 PM PDT by Nachum

Conservative interest in the presidential election hit “stratospheric levels” following last week’s Supreme Court ruling upholding Obamacare, noted pollster and author Scott Rasmussen tells Newsmax.TV.

“All that did was energize conservatives,” declared Rasmussen in an exclusive interview on Monday. “The conservative interest in the election was already much higher than that of moderates and liberals. It went up to really stratospheric levels right after the ruling. We don’t know if that will continue or if it’s just a temporary response to the news cycle.”

WE ARE DONE.

Speak for yourself, quitter. I'm not done by a long shot. Neither are most good patriots. Where there's a will, by God, there's a way.

My post number 36 explained my initial reaction to the poster who condensed all the avenues of action by conservatives to...Vote for Romney. That just isn’t the only plan by interested conservatives to proceed and not one that I could support. If truly interested, please see my other posts on this thread tonight.

It’s not just positivity. It’s taking responsibility. We are the sovereign power in this system and that’s what we have to take back. SCOTUS is as accountable to us as any other branch of OUR government. The mechanisms are different, but it can be done. Anyone still following Dred Scott?

Romney will lose like 2 3s in a poker game because millions of conservatives will not let him be crammed down our throat. We will not “ hold our nose”!! We will not compromise our beliefs . To Hell with romney. These Republican establishment people won their last election with tax and spend Bush!! IT IS OVER!!

No, its THINKING SCOTUS owns us that is a huge part of the problem. Any system can be change by people willing to put in the effort. Surrendering now would not only be stupid, it would be bad form. They came prepared to fight. We should both meet and exceed their expectations.

“The federal government can now compel behavior via taxation, and there isn’t a damn thing that can be done about it”

Well not exactly - have you heard of Constitutional amendments?

Whoever this person is may find that he is unregistered and hence ineligible to vote on Nov. 6.

Third-party voters will “teach the GOP a lesson.”

Oh brother! That's what the third-party voters said the last time and look what we've got in the White House now. Did a lot of good didn't it? Four more years and we'll be finished. . . literally.

You can bet I won't visit this site anymore because my blood pressure won't take it. : (

Glock...is there any truth to this:

“Here’s another of those quiet, subtle, but very dangerous little stories that has somehow slipped past all the mainstream media outlets.

The United States of America has a brand new private VOTE COUNTING company that the Obama administration has personally handpicked.

The company is called Scytl and it is based in Michelle Obama’s most favorite vacation spot, Barcelona, Spain.

Forget the fact that Barack is once again providing jobs for people in another country; there are much bigger fish to fry in this story.”

Why should we be angry? Our bodies were sold against our will at the world’s largest slave market to Fedzilla. Really now, should anybody be upset at that?

Hard to accept that a conservative could make a post like that, even jokingly, responding to someone who indicated that he/she planned to write-in their preferred candidate for President. Hard to accept. Actually, I don't.

I’m well aware of that. Voted for Ron Paul in the NY primary.

at this stage. Though, mittens is the only choice , even if the chances of him being ok are 10% at best.

staying home and allowing TJE ghetto street thug another term is simply out of the question.

The Rat Party,in their alleged quest for Utopia (or is it a quest for the power of life and death over the great unwashed?),have shortened my life and the lives of my children and grandchildren.They've also guaranteed that those shortened lifetimes will feature more suffering and disability.

Why would I possibly be angry?
