From Rasmussen:
…A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that just 33% of Likely U.S. Voters would rather have Congress avoid a government shutdown by authorizing spending at the same levels as last year. Fifty-eight percent (58%) says it’s better to have a partial shutdown until Democrats and Republicans can agree on what spending to cut…
Naturally, there is a partisan split – with 58% of Democrats horrified at the thought of any sort of government shut down, while Republicans and Independents are delighted with the prospect, 80% and 59%, respectively. As I’ve been saying, the people are on the side of budget cuts – deep and real cuts which are necessary to rescue us from fiscal disaster. The Democrats are on the wrong side – and thus there is no reason to compromise with them in the slightest.
Fight, fight and fight some more – keep pressing them back. We can win this, if we just show a bit of courage.
UPDATE: Another poll shows that more people would blame Democrats for a shut-down than GOPers. Once again – we’ve got them boxed in. We are forcing them to defend the indefensible…and all the time 2012 comes closer.
