Just 22% of Likely U.S. Voters say the country is heading in the right direction, the lowest level of confidence found since before President Obama's inauguration in January 2009.According to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey taken the week ending Sunday, March 13, 72% of voters now say the country is heading down the wrong track, also at its highest level since before the inauguration.
Confidence in the nation's current course hovered around the 30% mark for roughly a year until late October 2010 and then fell to a low of 23% in early to mid-December. But confidence began rising again at that time and hit a new high of 32% in late January.
Confidence that the country is moving in the right direction is at just 40% among Democrats, down from 59% the week before Election Day. Only 10% of Republicans and 17% of voters not affiliated with either major political party share that view.
Annnnnd for a money quote:
Sixty-one percent (61%) of Political Class voters believe the United States is heading in the right direction. Eighty-three percent (83%) of Mainstream voters think the country is going down the wrong track.
Any wonder that the elites seem out of touch and are doing their best to ignore the voters? Just keep it up kids. We still remember how to overthrow tyrants.
