oooh look data that supports my argument!
There was a strong correlation between opinions about the president and votes in the Massachusetts race.
· Among those who Strongly Approve of the way Obama is handling the job, Coakley won 96% to three percent (3%).
· Among those who Strongly Disapprove, Brown won 97% to two percent (2%).
· Brown also won the vote from 95% of those who Somewhat Disapprove of the president’s job performance.
well whaty'a know Johnny!
and how about....
Among those who Strongly Favor the plan before Congress, Coakley won 97% of the vote.
· Among those who Strongly Oppose the plan, 98% voted for Brown.
· Coakley also picked up 90% of those who Somewhat Favor the plan while Brown was supported by 78% of those who Somewhat Oppose it.
· One key to Brown’s victory is that 41% Strongly Opposed the plan while just 25% Strongly Favored it.
Nah....nuthin to do with the Dems or Obama. Coakley sucks, Brown has a truck. yeee haw!
