Public Policy Polling: Obama a Negative Influence (Dems running like rats from Obummer)




Public Policy Polling: Obama a Negative Influence (Dems running like rats from Obummer)

The hope and change ship is sinking and the democRATS are jumping into the friendly waters.

Public Policy Polling reports:

Illinois voters say they would be negatively influenced if a candidate was endorsed by Barack Obama. And if his support isn't an asset in his home state it's hard to imagine where it is.

40% of voters in the state say they'd be less likely to support an Obama endorsed candidate to only 26% who say it would be an asset. The reality at this point is that Obama turns Republican voters off to a much greater extent than he excites Democrats. That's reflected in the fact that 83% of Republicans say an Obama endorsement would be a negative with them while only 49% of Democrats say it would be a positive. Independents also respond negatively by a 38/19 margin.

The numbers on an Obama endorsement are perhaps more relevant with undecided voters. Among those who have not yet made up their minds in the Senate race 21% say an Obama endorsement would resonate positively with them while 33% say it would be a turnoff.

Damn that George Bush. He is the one making Obama's words and policies look bad. Thought I'd blame Bush before Obama or other lefties get the chance.
