22. I Don't Believe This.....

Mon May 5, 2014, 09:34 AM

May 2014

The Repubs are on the wrong side of every issue. Their major players are out on the talk shows lying and making up stories and embarrassing themselves and that is rubbing off on the People out their that call themselves supporters and have voted for them in the past. Again - Repub friends and neighbors that I talk to are embarrassed to now call themselves Repubs. I'm hearing they will either sit out Nov or will vote for the Dem.

Talk to Repubs for yourself. Ask them if they are embarrassed to call themselves Repubs. In most cases that is what you will hear.

These polls to me are just the opposite of what I'm hearing directly from People that previously were staunch Repubs.

They are "Embarrassed" to call themselves Repubs. The key word here is 'embarrassed'. Use it - it is effective.
