Voters Now Trust Democrats More on All Ten Key Electoral Issues
Monday, October 06, 2008
Voters now trust Democrats more than Republicans on all ten key electoral issues tracked by Rasmussen Reports.

The latest national telephone survey found that the Democrats have taken the largest advantage over the GOP on the economy since early June. Over half of voters (51%) trust Democrats more on economic issues, while 38% trust the GOP more. Investors are slightly more divided than non-investors between the parties. Investors trust Democrats more on the economy by a 47% to 42% margin, while non-investors favor the Democrats by a 62% to 29% margin. The economy is considered a very important issue by 80% of voters, up just one percentage point from last month. The survey was conducted the day after Congress passed the federal bailout bill, which was opposed by 45% of voters on Thursday.

The Democrats have pulled ahead of the GOP on national security, an issue John McCain’s party usually holds the advantage on. The Democrats now have a three-point edge on the issue, which is considered very important by 64% of voters.

Another issue that has shifted to the Democrats this month, taxes, is considered a very important issue to 57% of voters. The Democrats now hold a 47% to 42% edge on this issue.

The parties are closest on the issue of immigration, with the Democrats holding a modest 40% to 38% edge. Though immigration was a hot topic early in the election, just 41% of voters now consider it to be a very important electoral issue. That is the lowest percentage found since regular tracking began in August of last year.

When it comes to the War in Iraq, voters trust the Democrats more by a 47% to 42% margin. Last month, it was the GOP who held a four percentage point lead on this issue, which is very important to 55% of Likely Voters.

The Democrats hold double-digit leads on government ethicsand corruption, healthcare, social security and education. They also hold a nine-point advantage on the issue of abortion.

While McCain has faired better than his party in terms of earning trust from voters, he now trails Barack Obama on the majority of issues tracked by Rasmussen Reports.

If true this is why an effective communications machine is so important, and McCain's was awful. If I was the McCain Campaign's communicatiosn director they would be ahead in the polls.

You forgot - accurate as demonstrated by your complete failure to even address any substantive argument I have made.

i guess the real measure of the arguments put forward is whether or not you've converted anyone to your point of view. by that standard i'd guess not many of us are successful here.

Some people aren't smart enough to be converted.

Well Vision- if some day you decide to become a campaign communication director- first pick a candidate that is not older than 90% of the voters and one that has a positive message and can relate to the masses-not just those in the old soldiers home- and just not riding on the past policies of what may easily be the most hated President in history...That message and theme of the message also must be one he originated- and not one he stole from his opponent after the opponent used it for over a year and half- "CHANGE" :roll: :wink: ...

And find one that doesn't have such a longtime ethical and corruption history with 25 years ties to influence peddling, Big money Lobbyiests, and known as a sexist to many women for his years of philandering and opposing womens rights - which even more enflamed many by picking an "air headed" unqualified woman to pander to them...Most women are not that dumb-and now make up the majority of the population..

Then forget you've ever heard of Karl Rove -- and run an honest campaign on the issues remembering that you get more with honey than vinegar- and the truth than lies ...As Bob Bennet and other Republicans have been saying the last couple of days-- McCains negative campaigning was not only hurting him (has killed his chances)- but is undermining all the Republican candidates- and hurting Congressional chances...They think, that he now is a losing cause, and should suck it up and take one for his party and work for them from now on out...

That makes absolutely no sense at all.

You are too foolish to listen to reason. I am not here to convert you. Some people are a stupid as they are stubborn and you certainly qualify, but other people learn as I carve your sides arguments up like a roast.

So far you havent been able tro touch me with a 10 meter cattleprod.

OT your candidate is inciting panic and trying to get everyone to think in the reptialian stem of the brain. This is essentially the same as trying to pick a fight and getting someone into the fight or flee mode.

No one makes their best decisons under pressure or panic.

If any one of us took investment advice from someone who is always in a panic, we'd be making bad decisions. We'd probably get lucky a time or two also.
