Poll: Republican Voters Think Republican Politicians Out of Touch

 by Deb Cupples |   For what it's worth, Rasmussen states:

"Seventy-four percent (74%) of Republican voters say their party’s representatives in Congress have lost touch with GOP voters nationwide over the past several years. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that just 18% of GOP voters believe their elected officials have done a good job representing the base."

That's likely because most Republican congressmen are busy promoting agendas of the corporate heads and wealthy individuals who pay said congressmen.  Meanwhile, most Republican voters are likely middle- or working-class.

Yes, Rush Limbaugh and the folks at Fox have managed to fool tons of Republican voters into believing that their interests are the same as those of your average corporate head or multi-millionaire (apparently, they're still fooling about 18% of the GOP's base). 

But, borrowing from the great GOP politician Abe Lincoln, you can't fool all the people all the time.  Memeorandum has commentary.
