Via Jon Terbush, the new CNN poll says Tea Party unfavorables are at an all-time high:
In the poll, 47% of adult Americans said they viewed the Tea Party unfavorably, compared to 32% who said they viewed it favorably.The latest finding continues a trend of the Tea Party losing popularity as it has became more well known.
In January 2010, a plurality of Americans viewed the Tea Party favorably by a 33%-26% split, while an additional 24% had no opinion. Support has since stayed in the mid to high 30s, peaking at 38% in both April and November last year, while opposition has grown. Last April, 36% of Americans viewed the Tea Party unfavorably, a number that rose to 37% in October, and 43% in November.
I bet it’s because they’re not conservative enough!
As it becomes clear that the tea party favors people standing on their own two feet, and rewarding work and accomplishment, and not transferring wealth to others, yeah, I expect 47% of CNN viewers woudl be uncomfortable with that
I was surprised it wasn't higher, but then I realized that CNN's ratings are so low that it didn't matter anyway.
Wonder how Elliott Spitzer is working out for them?
It's not 47% of CNN viewers dumbass
