A CNN/ORC International Poll released Tuesday indicates that 56 percent of Americans say the congressional Republicans' policies will move the country in the wrong direction, with 53 percent of the public saying the same about policies of the Democrats in Congress.

"Men and women agree that the GOP policies are a bust, but women are split on the Democratic policies while men continue to dislike them. There is a generation gap as well, with younger Americans tending to favor the Democrats' policies and older Americans more in the GOP camp," says CNN Polling Director Keating Holland.

3. How could they not?

It's not that hard to figure out what the public wants. I guess the difficult thing is to do it.

4. What are the Democrats policies?

All I can gather is Democrats give Republicans what they want and America suffers more and more.... I wish Democrats had policies....:shrug:

5. Exactly, people are looking at what Obama is doing and they don't like it

Thus, they assume that Obama=Democratic policies. I'm glad to see that people agree that what we have been doing isn't working.

6. without know what they think are the parties policies

then how do I know what to think of the poll. If say half the people that responded dislike Democratic policies because Obama raised taxes and bailed out the banks, then isn't safe to say their opinions aren't very interesting as their lack of knowledge.

7. Would that be the same CNN who claims to be the trusted name in news and employs(R) Erick Erickson?

I'm just a little resigned and cynical when it comes to the corporate media, especially those who try to emulate the FOX/GOP propaganda network.
