GOP Losses Span Nearly All Demographic Groups

(Link provides data/graphs/stat info/etc.)

PRINCETON, NJ -- The decline in Republican Party affiliation among Americans in recent years is well documented, but a Gallup analysis now shows that this movement away from the GOP has occurred among nearly every major demographic subgroup. Since the first year of George W. Bush's presidency in 2001, the Republican Party has maintained its support only among frequent churchgoers, with conservatives and senior citizens showing minimal decline.

@Sabz5150,
If America survives Obama, (doubtful), American's will realize what they've done to themselves and get rid of him and the rest of his communist crew.

A coup you say? A little extreme don't you think? Of course your world view relies on extremes.

Three words: We survived Bush.

And it only cost us a major city, two of the country's tallest skyscrapers and about 10,000 American lives.

Do you anticipate Barry pulling a Hugo and attempting to become president for life? If so, absolutely.
But, I don't think it will come to anything that drastic. Barry is brave. But he doesn't have Venezualians for subjects. His subjects accept that freedom is not free. Have paid, and will pay the price for it again if necessary.

My views likely are extreme to one who is extreme in the opposite direction. Actually, I agree anyway, my views are extreme. But, I am comfortable with them and and I have no desire to eradicate any opposition as leftist have traditionally done throughout history.

Bill Clinton ignoring Bin Laden I'm sure played no part in that. Nor did Islam. Heh?
After the ragheads got in their licks, no Americans have died on U.S. soil since.
Of course, 5000 American "VOLUNTEER" soldiers have died in combat. But, that's what soldiers do. Hopefully more enemies died than American troops. You know the answer to that.

BTW. What major city do you refer to as lost?

You still believe that tired, old right-wing meme? How cute.

Bush ignored Bin-Laden. He was told what was going to happen. He ignored it. We lost two buildings and thousands of lives. That happened on HIS watch, so you can take your buck passing elsewhere.

New Orleans. Or have you not seen what it looks like out there... still.

You're a very paranoid person. I've seen no indication that this would ever happen. You're making out your political opponents to be like cartoon super-villains. Next you're gonna ask me if I think Obama is going to make a giant death ray.

1. Only slightly. Pay attention, Obama, in Hugo's stead has now nationalized two economic institutions. Hugo has him beat by 4 institutions. Hugo has been in power a lot longer that Barry. The vast sums of money controlled by the two entities nationalized by Barry already surpass the amounts nationalized by Chavez.
2. No, I'm not. But, I do recommend that you observe his actions. Your grand children will be slaves to the state to pay off his shopping spree and have nothing for themselves. I'm not OK with that.
3. I have no idea. I know they have not experienced freedom as Americans have. Americans are more likely to react to being herded than a people who see no hope for a future of personal independence.

Too late. That happened over the past eight years.

But, you're okay with that... praise Jesus and bomb everyone else I suppose.

Whatever caused your hatred for Bush is your business. But, don't let make you a liar. Not one industry was nationalized, unemployment was low. Home owners were not being foreclosed on in record numbers. The condition America is in at this time, is on Barry Hussien's shoulders. Own it. But, no, you can't. You're a liberal.

Like I said before, your world view relies on extremes. You can't seem to grasp the fact that the world isn't going to end just because someone you disagree with has power. You're just being a drama-queen.

Oh what a load of bull! This is noting but a pipe dream so you can feel special. Well, guess what? You're not special. I'm not special. Americans are not special. Get over it! That pride of yours has gone straight to your head.

Here's the truth: people are people! Whether they're from Venezuela or America, whether they're from Zimbabwe of Ireland or even China. Americans are no more opposed to losing their freedoms than anybody else, and Americans are no more braver than anyone else. Our ancestral lands have nothing to do with the content of our character. Many Americans like to think they are better than everybody else. of course we shouldn't let reality crush their ego.

The foreclosures started... under Bush

The umemployment shot up... under Bush

TARP was approved... Under Bush

You want ME to own it? Your end can't even take responsibility for 9/11! Oh, it's Clinton's fault, waah waah waah, when all this happened on YOUR watch! When did this economy go to ****?! During BUSH'S term. When did 9/11 get hit?! During BUSH'S term.

This is the mess we were left to clean up by you guys, but you are so ready to pass the buck every single time, just like a good little conservative... break the toys, blame the kid across the street.

1. I agree. Because Bush started acting like a liberal I think to forgo controversy as much as he could for the sake of his legacy. He should have stood against the democratic congress and let industry that was failing fail and be replaced by others who could step in and satisfy supply and demand via the free market method.
2. I actually give Arabs the credit for 9-11. I don't consider Clintoon at fault. Even though he pissed away opportunities to kill Bin Laden and that sending Rangers into fight in Mogadishu in a half hearted attempt just pissed off Arabs. But, in his defense, Arabs would have found any reason to be pissed off and kill anybody they could given an opportunity.
3. Barry will not clean up anything. He will of course make statements like "We can now say we have taken a step back from the brink" when we actually haven't gotten close to the brink. But will when the time comes to pay for his absurdity.
He's a genius at making the people think he's saving them from something they don't need saved from. He's an evil creep.

You mean the same method that got us here? Isn't that like treating a bullet wound with... a bullet wound?

"Bin Laden determined to attack within US"

"No War for Monica"

Those ought to spin kick your brain into some sort of reality.

He won't clean up anything? Well that first requires you to admit that your candidate and administration of choice messed things up to begin with.

It's also funny that when conservative tactics start to fail like a house of cards that, as you put it, politicians start acting "liberal" when looking for a solution. Strange how that works.

Hint: If your "free market" actually worked, we wouldn't be in this mess to begin with. That's like pointing to a Buick with half the oil and coolant on the ground, a knocking rod and spun bearings while screaming "IT RUNS!!! YOU JUST DON'T KNOW HOW TO DRIVE IT!!!".

Apparently the only place you guys have driven it is into the ground.

1. America, as young as it is, has created an economic system that has surpassed any in the history of man. That system has been recessed and depressed in the past. It always rebounded. The last thing it needed was a socialistic moron to come in with his finger on the panic button. Smooth talking people into a panic mode for no other reason than to take control so as to attain total control and dismantle the great system. Time will expose this evil bastard creep. But it will be too late for the those who needed a real leader. But, the dye was cast long ago and America can survive this monster. If they choose to.
2 What?
3. Admit? Before this creep came along, presidents had little effect on economy. They always got more blame and more credit than the had coming.
This one however, is changing that.
3a. BTW perhaps "you" can clarify the great Barry plan for us. So far we have seen billions handed over to we don't know who. We have seen Chrysler and GM file bankruptcy after they were saved. What's the long term goal?
Barry has stated that he has no intention of "running" automotive companies after he fired the CEO of GM. He then stated that following the stringent layout that he has provided GM they will be OK and that the automotive companies will be making the decisions. Sounded like the decisions were already made and the players would be chosen by him.

Driven us into the ground? Who's definition would you use? You and I have never seen genuine hard times. Obama obviously convinced you that as you sit at your computer and reach out via the internet that your life suddenly unbearable thanks to capitalism.

@Sabz5150,
When gman uses the term "Raghead" to describe some undefined group of people anything and everything he says is tainted by that term. I suppose he means Muslims but I'm not sure. There are 5 million Muslims in the USA and they have every single right to "life, liberty and the persuit of happyness that Mr. gman has. I wonder how mr Gman would like it if millions of Americans refered to him as "Red necked,white trailer park trash". I would bet he would not like that and neither do people like to be called "ragheads". It seems in America there is always got to be some one to throw hatred at by the people that are haters.

Because his simplistic world-views do not allot him brain power on understanding the complexities of other groups of people that he does not understand. It, if anything, shows his bigoted attitudes to anything "foreign". The real irony here is that not only Muslims wear head-coverings nor do all Muslims wear them. The fact that he attempts to lump together 1.8 billion people together as "essentially the same" makes him about as barbaric as he attempts to make them look.
