Many voters do not want a republican takeover. Four-fifths say they want Republicans and Democrats to work together to get things done, as opposed to rigidly sticking to principles. Republicans have said they want to cut $100 billion from the federal budget as early as January. They plant to target programs such as college loans for low-income students or medical research at the National Institutes of Health. This is interesting. In recent polls young voters and minorities who voted for Obama are still in favor of democrats, but this proposal by Republicans clearly speaks volume to that demographic. With Republicans seeing their strongest support among men, senior citizens and those with incomes of more than $100,000 as well as there pledge to meet the needs of lower socio-economic Americans is the Obama administration in trouble?
