Republicans United, To A Point
A new Washington Post poll finds Republicans and GOP-leaning independents are “overwhelmingly negative” about President Obama and the Democratic Party more broadly, “with nearly all dissatisfied with the administration’s policies and almost half saying they are ‘angry’ about them. About three-quarters have a more basic complaint, saying Obama does not stand for ‘traditional American values.’ More than eight in 10 say there is no chance they would support his reelection.”
However, the survey “also reveals deep dissatisfaction among GOP voters with the party’s leadership as well as ideological and generational differences that may prove big obstacles to the party’s plans for reclaiming power.”
