And this link leads to a WaPo/AP story about that.

I sure hope the repubicans enjoy flexing their new muscles on opposing the will of the people.

Tea, anyone?

1. Only 30% oppose now. 28% is the hard core RW extreme that will never change.

3. This is what always pissed me off during the "battles".. Reporters pounced on bogus poll numbers
Edited on Mon Jan-17-11 09:26 AM by SoCalDem
because a LOT of the "disapprove" was about not going far enough..

The way they worded the questions, lumped not far enough with too far, and then reported it incorrectly.

Rarely were people invited to talk about their "disgruntlement" who wanted MORE..There was a steady stream of the screamers & teabag people, though.
