Total polled was 1,089

Republicans 304 weighted 274
Democrats 341 Weighted 350
Independants 444 Weighted 465

Perhaps I'm reading this part of your survey incorrectly but this looks to me to be a fairly lopsided demographic favoring the democrat response potential and, as if that weren't sufficient to your aim, you've weighted even further to a cartoonish level.

25% republican and 32% democrat, quite a spread.

Nice job, comrades.

Repubs aren't serious about the reducing the Debt or Deficits; their agenda's more tax cuts to Romney-like millionaires. Gallup poll: Reagan and Clinton voted best presidents last decades. Nixon and Bush, worst. Romney to imitate the best? Hell no, to ape Bush with his deep tax cuts to himself and the Romney-likes even if he takes the nation over the cliff.

There are going to be 3 people on the ballot in every state! What gives? Where's Gary Johnson of the Libertarian Party? These other two choices, the (D) (R) choices, are both war parties! Voting Libertarian is the only way I'll be at peace!
