Voters appear to be siding with Republicans over Democrats so far in the “high-noon” showdown over federal budget cuts — but that may continue only as long as voters believe Republicans are acting in good faith to try to avoid an impasse that would temporarily shut down parts of the federal government.

Voters see Republicans as “more reasonable” than Democrats so far in budget negotiations – by a 41-to-29 percent margin, according to a poll published Monday by TheHill.com.

“Voters want cuts,” said Democratic pollster and Fox News contributor Douglas Schoen. “The November election results made that clear.”

The Hill poll was particularly notable, given Democratic efforts to portray the GOP cuts as “extreme.”

DG,

You're entitled to your opinion, even if you are in the minority.

That's the point, the majority of people don't want Paul Ryan & the Republicans "plan".

Republicans won in Nov because people are frustrated about the lack of "jobs".

The Republicans misread their "mandate", they have made abortion, and slashing programs that impact the masses their priority, while pushing for even MORE tax cuts for the wealthy.

Voters will vote them out, unless they LISTEN. clo
