From Rasmussen:
When it comes to the economy, 47% of voters trust John McCain more than Barack Obama. Obama is trusted more by 41%. The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey also found that, when it comes to the War in Iraq, McCain is trusted more by 49% of voters. Obama is preferred by 37%. McCain has an even larger edge—53% to 31%–on the broader topic of National Security. These results are little changed from a month ago.
Obama enjoys a 43% to 39% advantage when it comes to government ethics and reducing corruption. McCain has a 44% to 38% advantage on taxes.
I don’t see how Obama comes across as particularly ethical, but whatever. All in all, this is good news for John McCain, especially considering he gets far less fawning media coverage than Obama does.
“Obama enjoys a 43% to 39% advantage when it comes to government ethics and reducing corruption.”
Not a chance does a socialist have better ethics. Criminals are more often liberal and support liberal policies so with liberals having a greater quantity of criminals in their midst, how can political actions by liberals be more likely to increase ethics and reduce corruption?
Answer: By having the power to hide what is going on. That’s all.
Today’s Gallup poll shows that 67% of Americans think that Obama’s proposal to meet with America’s “enemies” is a good idea. Among Republicans, 48% think it’s a good idea.
As for the ethics thing, I don’t suppose McCain’s association with the Keating scandal helps him at all, nor does the large number of lobbyists working in his campaign, nor does ignoring the campaign finance law that he himself co-authored.
Just sayin’.
Check out politicalcompass.org and take the test to find out where you really stand. Obama and McCain are closer together than you might think, and they’re both very right of center. For what it’s worth, I’m somewhere in the lower left around Ghandi.
McCain strong on national security?
The same one that thinks our borders are an inconvienince to illegal aliens.
