Democrats Voting Against Jobs Bill Hurt Themselves, Says Pollster

Democratic members of congress who plan to vote against President Obama’s jobs bill may just hurt themselves, according to a leading pollster. In an interview with The Washington Post, pollster Stan Greenberg said that “They reduce their risks for reelection by showing support for a jobs bill that’s going to be increasingly popular as voters learn more about it.”

Polls have shown that a massive percentage of voters support the President’s bill, and oppose GOP-led efforts to give the super-rich a pass on taxation. [Washington Post]
