Its a media political game. It use to work, but people got wise to the game. Here is what happens in this game and why it fails now. The media puts out these poll numbers with a list of reasons for them. People get mad, and vote out the culprits… well… one side does anyway. Republican voters historically will turn on their reps if their reps are turning a deaf ear to them and screwing up. Democrat voters, on the other hand, don’t give a ■■■■ and keep returning the same scum to power every single time. Result, things just get worse and the Republicans are the only ones to ever pay a price.
We have gotten a little wiser now.
