57% would throw out all the legislators?  I didn't think that number would be quite so low.  http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/obama_administration/daily_presidential_tracking_pollThe Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Sunday shows that 32% of the nation's voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Forty-two percent (42%) Strongly Disapprove. That’s the highest level of Strong Disapproval yet recorded for this President and it gives Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -10 (see trends).
If Americans could vote to keep or replace the entire Congress, 57% would throw out all the legislators and start over again. Just 25% would vote to keep the Congress. |

BUt everyone likes "their" legicritters, thats why these folks always get back in.  They throw cash around in their districts and they are the "good guys", everyone else in congress is bad. |

I guess I'm not everyone. I haven't reelected anyone in years. I've been trying to clean house but can't do it without "everyone's" vote along with mine. Party doesn't matter, I vote against the incumbutt (<<<<<grammatical error) most times. Raymond |

It seems I have voted for losers my whole life. Well, I did vote for Dale Bumpers once but that was a long, long time ago.

It's a problem. I wanted to replace our guy last November, but the challenger was worse that the incumbant!  What do you do?  |

Why we dont impose term limits on Congressmen and Senators is beyond me  That would keep this country in check better than anything. |
