Harry Reid’s Favorables Fall to 19%
Saturday, June 09, 2007


Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is now viewed favorably by 19% of American voters and unfavorably by 45%. Just 3% have a Very Favorable opinion while 22% hold a Very Unfavorable views.

Reid has been very visible over the past week in the furor over immigration reform. The effort to pass a bill that was more popular in Congress than among voters may have hurt public perceptions of the Democratic leader. His ratings are down from a month ago when 26% had a favorable opinion of the Democratic Senator. Reid’s highest ratings were 30% favorable in February.

Each week, Rasmussen Reports updates favorability ratings for a number of political figures and others in the news. The latest numbers for Defense Secretary Robert Gates reflect a steady decline in recent months. He is now viewed favorably by 36% of Americans and unfavorably by 34%. Last December, 49% have a favorable opinion and only 26% held a negative opinion.

Vice President Dick Cheney’s numbers held steady—38% favorable and 58% unfavorable.

Among Presidential hopefuls, it was a good week for Fred Thompson. He is now viewed favorably by 45% and unfavorably by 31% A month ago, 39% had a favorable opinion and 27% voiced the opposite view. Thompson moved into second place among those seeking the GOP Presidential Nomination and is competitive in general election match-ups with many leading Democrats.

Barack Obama and John Edwards both saw their numbers drop. Obama, a charismatic newcomer, is seen now favorably by 50% and unfavorably by 44%. That’s the highest level of unfavorables Rasmussen Reports has ever measured for Obama. Other polling out this week showed Obama falling behind Republican frontrunner Rudy Giuliani by double digits.

Edwards’ newest numbers are 52% favorable and 38% favorable. That’s just a slight decline from 55% favorable a month ago.

And, finally, there’s Scooter Libby, convicted to 30 months in prison during the week. He is now viewed favorably by just 19% of Americans, unfavorably by 57%. Earlier, he was viewed favorably by 24% and unfavorably by just 37%.

Look for this “favesâ€

Harry Reid, for those who don't know, is from Nevada. The Los Vegas hotels and casinos employ hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens to clean the rooms and run the kitchens, as well as take care of the landscaping.
You can bet old Harry knows which side his bread is buttered on. Yessir, he's a real class act and an asset to America.....NOT.

When is Dirty Harry up for re-election?

Harry is up for re-election in 2010.

You think he's still insisting it's because of anything other than his stance on illegals?

Bush is trying to get this bill back on the floor Tuesday. Keep Calling your senators.

I've been calling and faxing all morning. I would sure love to humiliate Bush and see this Bill go down the toilet once and for all.

Bush is pushing for this amnesty bill to be brought up AGAIN. We must call the White House and oppose this. Do any of you these calls will fall on deaf ears?

The will of the people is being ignored by Bush. I have never seen such a arrogant, stubborn president. And, I have seen a bunch of them.....

I have never, in my lifetime, seen such disregard for "the people's will". This is very scarey folks!!!!!

We must have the fence built. Bombard the WH. NO amnesty, send the illegals to Connecticut, where the state is incouraging law breakers to COME ON DOWN.
