"SNIP...............................................
Thats the percentage of Americans who have a favorable view of the Republican Party, according to the Pew Research Center.
The partys favorable rating fell from 36 percent last month and from 42 percent in mid-September, after the Republican National Convention that nominated Mitt Romney for president.
Much of this decline has come among Republicans themselves, Pew said in a written analysis, noting that favorable opinion of Republicans fell to 69 percent from 89 percent last September among its own members.
Republicans are trying to improve their public image after Romneys loss to President Barack Obama in November, when Republicans also lost ground in the House and Senate.

(20,899 posts)their loathsome Ryan budget, their outlandish interpretation of the Second Amendment which ignores the well regulated part, their willingness to piss on the old, frail, and poor, their loving embryos so much that many are willing to kill for, their insisting that large corporations and the most affluent continue to slop mightily at the public welfare trough while also insisting that government renege on its obligations to social security and Medicare beneficiaries, their threatening to default on the government's debt it Democrats don't accept their ransom demands, is it their bat-shit crazy zanies like Heron Bachmann. Oh, just what is it about the GOP that the 33% like to love? P.S The foregoing doesn't add up to a pretty picture imo.
