Battleground poll shows Dems down by 18 points

If this week’s polling is any evidence, Democrats are facing an even tougher road come November. With President Obama’s approval sinking below former presidentGeorge W. Bush’s, the latest Fox News poll finds Republicans hold the advantage as they seek to reclaim the Senate. In states with active U.S. Senate races, likely voters say they would back the Republican a 9-point margin. And when looking at the results in just the 14 Fox News battleground states the GOP edge widens to 18-point margin. Fox News: “The president recently claimed that ‘by almost every measure’ the nation’s economy and American workers are better off now than when he took office. Voters dismiss his boast as ‘mostly false’ by a 58-36 percent margin. That includes 37 percent of Democrats who think it doesn’t ring true.”

[The battleground list: Arkansas, Colorado, Georgia, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, North Carolina, New Hampshire, South Dakota and West Virginia]

I support candidates who have won the republican primary election in their state.I have donated money to a lot of them that I felt could actually win and I will continue doing so until november.I don't give much money because I can't afford much only $10 at a time because I live on a SS check but I feel strongly that if we are going to get control of our government again we must all do what ever we can to help out.
