Poll: No Americans Think Economy Improving

The DEM controlled Congress, brought to you by Nancy Pelosi and her buds has done enough damage, time to clean house!!!!

the damage done is a result of the president's failed policies, and his power to veto anything that is in any way helpful to the American people that is proposed by the Democratic Congress. Don't be naive people.

Sorry, but if the DEMS in Congress only send CRAP through it's going to get vetoed, as it should be. TIME TO CLEAN HOUSE!!!

Peloser ignored McCains warnings, Obama did nothing, now still doesn't have the answer. McCain/Palon 08

God help us all...we as Americans are as dumb as what you write and say. The Democratic controlled congress is a count of 51 to 49 so the Dems can get nothing through. This whole situation was a result of a corrupt Republican administration on many many fronts and their lack of any controls or regulations. Go to the GAO website and research BEFORE making your ignorant statements.

BUSH'S LEGACY IS LOSS OF OUR ECONOMY, OUR POWER OUR DIGNITY. MCCAIN WILL CONTINUE IN HIS PATH. WHAT THE EVANGELICAL CHRISTIAN RIGHT HAS GIVEN US THE WORST POOL OF REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES THIS COUNTRY HAS SEEN. WE HAVE SO MANY TALENTED PEOPLE ON BOTH SIDES OF THE HOUSE YET BECAUSE OF THERE IDEOLOGICAL BELIEFS WE ARE STUCK WITH HAS BEENS LIKE MCCAIN AND PALIN. LOOK NO FURTHER THAN BLOOMBERG WHO WOULD HAVE MADE A GREAT REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT ESPECIALLY AT THIS TIME. 8 YEARS OF BEING RUN BY IDIOCY AND LIES......

The problem is our political system - why do we have to wait 4 years if we are dissatisfied with the current occupant of the White House? Why not amend the Constitution to allow for a 'vote of confidence' by the electorate, so if the occupant of the White House isn't doing his/her job, then the people can vote to get him/her out of office sooner than at the end of 4 years! Other democracies do it - but it'll never happen here.

the only solution is to END supply side economics. Obama and the democratic party can and will do that. The solution is simply to overturn Gramm-Leach-Bliley, reenact Glass-Seagall and begin ENFORCING Sherman and Clayton.

This is the LIBERAL solution that kept banks stable and gave us a prosperous economy. It worked!!

NO republican will go there. If democrats win, and not just the presidency, but a majority in house AND senate, this return to sanity will come to pass.

If not, you'll get more gramm-reagan-mccain 'trickle down' economics - the same thing that caused this - neoconnism. It's not a viable American political philosophy, and it's all republicanists have to offer since 2000. Don't get fooled again!

It's time to return to sanity, peace and prosperity. Vote democratic!

Early in our history, there was a revolution because of taxation without representation. We are again facing the same grievance. Who voted for Paulson or Bernake? Yet they are going to tax us to the tune of 700+ billion. The next revolution? Get rid of every incumbent in Congress!

BUSH DOCTRINE HUGE SUCCESS!!!Our homeland has been free of terrorism attack for the past SEVEN YEARS due to President Bush's strategy of fighting terrorism at it's breeding grounds over there. Our swift retalliatory base in centrally located Iraq is the principal deterrant to other Islamic nations that might be/were complicit in 9-11 not to try it again. Reaction time in today's WMD enviornment is measured in minutes not months, and our established logistical pipeline would enable rapid response.
Instead of apologizing for President Bush, McCain and Palin, should be proclaiming immense gratitude for his success in keeping USA free of major terrorism attack for the last SEVEN YEARS!!!!!!!!!!! Primary job of President is security of country and our's deserves a 100% report card. We have been safe to assemble anywhere, travel and sleep securely for the past SEVEN YEARS because of President Bush!!!!!!!!

Hey bonbon it is Pelosi and Palin....not Peloser and Palon proves my points lol lol

Anti American Media with it's continuous negative propaganda about our President and USA is subverting our national defense and world posture. The USA is the envy of the world with our free enterprise system and individual freedom. President Bush has kept our country terror free for the past seven years yet the media will not give him no credit for his great achievement in dealing with the Islamic Jihad that vows to destroy us by any means possible. The Media has aided our serreptitious enemies by scurriliously attacking our president and his resolve and strategy in defending our country. President Bush skillfully averted World War 3 by confining our response to planting our rapid deployment forces in centrally located Iraq where we do not need flyover permission to retalliate against other nations that were complicit in 9-11 if they try another attack. The Media, UN and Democrats are the forces out to destroy our country and take it to Global Communism.

Quit knocking America. I don't see anyone lining up to get into IRAN

Who could this 19% be? You would have to be less intelligent than Bush to approve of him. Surely there is a statistical error in this poll.

a poem for the Harrises:

Roses are red
Violets are blue
I'm schizophrenic
And neither am I!

Looks like suckin on homer simpbaugh's brain lesion done give ya the mad cow, sport.

Our economy was doomed for failure when our producers, investment capital and production assets were allowed to flee to serf labor countries. The Democratically controlled Congress and Senate are responsible for our sad economic and energy situation. Thery oppose all attempts to rebuild our infrastructure and energy programs. They project gloom and doom as opposed to Roosevelt who projected optimism and massive energy programs like Hoover Dam and TVA that provided jobs and energy for millions. We need to level the fair trading playing field and provide incentives for capital to invest in and build up the USA rather than Communist China. We should get started on vast hydro electric and nuclear development programs that will require US workers to build here for our expanding population. We should deport our Media and Democratic Representatives to Communist China to restrict their infrastructure and energy development so that our economy can prosper. Social programs detract from our economy and need a source of funding from a thriving industrial fountainhead of employed workers. Obama's Tax attack on the rich will drive investment capital to flee or stagnate resulting in no jobs and total tax revenue lost.

The Economy of the US is so huge it is impossible for all of it to be in the dumps. When times are good high end stores do good, when times are bad discount stores do good. I have no family members or friends out of work, and everyone I know who has lost a job has had a new one in two weeks max. New housing starts are down the price of construction materials are down. Means remodeling is more affordable. The one thing I know is drive by any store and you see cars parked outside. People are still driving places and buying. About 2 percent of the housing loans defulted and another 2 percent are behind in payments. Some banks bought a lot of bad loans cheep thinking they would make a profit. Opps. Lost that one. Some companies are having wind fall profits, (ie Oil and K-Walmarts), and if you tax it they will up their prices to cover the tax and still get their profit. One thing is for certain if the government gets involved its bound to screw it up, everyone is to blame and no one is to blame.

Jay Allbritton: dumber than a bag of rocks.

McCain said the fundamentals of the economy are strong. The economy is at it's worst since the Great Depression. Ben Franklin said, "The heart of a fool is in his mouth." McCain has proven this point quite well.
