Quinnipiac 2/23 - Republicans Out Of Step With U.S. Voters On Key Issues

Voters support 54 - 38 percent "renegotiating major trade deals with other countries, even if it means paying more for the products you buy" and support 87 - 10 percent increasing federal spending for roads, mass transit and other infrastructure, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh- pe-ack) University Poll finds.

But American voters oppose other measures:
62 - 31 percent against reducing taxes across the board, even if it increases the deficit;
51 - 38 percent against restarting the Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipelines;
60 - 37 percent against building the wall on the Mexican border, with 65 - 33 percent against the wall if the U.S. must pay for it;
76 - 18 percent against lowering taxes on the wealthy;
50 - 43 percent against lowering taxes on businesses and corporations;
54 - 34 percent against removing regulations on businesses and corporations;
63 - 27 percent against removing specific regulations intended to combat climate change;
54 - 43 percent against repealing the Affordable Care Act.

I'm surprised people still pay attention to polls.

http://www.cnn.com/2015/01/15/politics/poll-majority-of-americans-back-keystone-pipeline/

The 1,179-mile Canada-to-Texas pipeline is backed by 57% of the 1,011 Americans surveyed on Dec. 18-21. Just 28% oppose it, while 15% say they are unsure.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 51% of Likely U.S. Voters now favor building the major oil pipeline from Canada to Texas, while 43% are opposed.

Oh no, of course not! even though that's the subject we were discussing and the polls you linked were about the pipeline.

:lol:

I've never been associated with anyone who has wasted as much time on things that generally don't relate to them as you.   I think its hilarious.  

The general post was about much more than just the xl pipeline.

It's so easy to manipulate these poll results to say anything you want them to. I don't believe any of it. Rubbish...

Yeah, but the democrats need something to try and keep their points relevant.  The fact that they don't hold a majority means nothing to them.
