What The Main Stream News Media Won't Tell You

56% Oppose Any More Government Help For Banks

Following Geithner Presentation, Consumer Confidence Falls to Record Low

On Economic Issues, Voter Trust in Democrats Is Falling

Democrats are still trusted more than Republicans to handle the economy by a 44% to 39% margin, but their advantage on the issue has been slipping steadily since November. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey of likely voters found 17% are not sure which party they trust more to handle the economy, showing no change since the last poll conducted a month ago.

These numbers speak for themselves, folks. Rasmussen Reports is a highly respected polling agency and is not partisan in anyway. Looks to me like the walls are tumbling down on Obama's facade.

You won't hear any of this from the Main Stream News Media that's for sure !
