More Repubs Support Ground Zero Strip Club (21%) Over Mosque (4%)!
Edited on Fri Oct-08-10 01:36 PM by kpete
-On our New York poll we found pretty much the same stuff on public opinion about the mosque that everyone else has- only 32% of voters support building it to 55% opposed. But at the same time 59% of voters think the developer has the right to build it to only 30% who disagree on that front.

We took it a step further though and that's where the numbers get interesting. We asked, using the exact same verbiage as the mosque question, whether voters would support building a strip club two blocks from Ground Zero. The overall numbers came out roughly the same as for the mosque- 28% in support and 54% opposed. But a look inside the crosstabs finds a shocking disparity when it comes to who supports the mosque and who supports the strip club.

Just 4% of Republican voters support building the Ground Zero mosque. But 21% say they would support a Ground Zero strip club! Now everything that's happened at the RNC this year makes sense...just supporting the values of the base.

Democrats narrowly support the mosque but oppose the strip club, independents oppose both the mosque and the strip club.

1. Well...
We all know that the so called "MORAL" party, republicans, are actually the "IMMORAL" party! They talk the talk, but they sure don't walk the walk! When it comes to religion, they hate anyone that does not believe as they do, but when it comes to actually "PRACTICING" what they preach, well that's a whole other thing!

3. Well it makes perfect sense -
they're far more likely to frequent a strip club than a mosque. Is it such a stretch?
