talking point and that is
7 out of 10 (that's 70% wow) Americans believe United States is moving the the wrong direction. What?
My first question to Republicans is give the reason(s)why you think we are moving in the wrong direction?
and if Democrats are so bad or if President Obama is so bad why does he have a 55% approval rating?
So why cant we have 4 more years with Hillary as President to keep this country moving in correct direction?
(Dare I say Right)

Local Republicans I talk to say Hilary is not qualified or that with Hillary we will have another 4 years of Obama and my reply is Why do you say Hillary is not qualified (they cant answer that ) and whats wrong with have 4 more years of Obama and again they cant answer.

These same people would vote for Alvin The Chipmunk if he had an "R: in front of his name

1. That 70% is misleading

Because it includes people who have wildly different opinions on why we're allegedly heading in the wrong direction. It could be that half wish we were more conservative while half want us to be more liberal. Pence is being vague and misleading to make his point, of course.

3. Problem is, we're not moving in ANY direction because of gridlock

Our gov is stuck in gridlock, because of Republican obstruction. They don't want to do anything except cut taxes and privatize everything that isn't nailed down. By not doing anything, they think that at least they have obstructed progressive programs until they can take the presidency. Also, they want to prevent Obama for getting credit for anything because he's a black man.

We have to take the senate and House. We need to kick butt big time come 2018 for the interim election.

2. Favorible view: President Obama, 55% and climbing. Congress, 18%

Yes, those two differences probably average out to about 70% wrong track.

But what has dragged down the overall view of Washington is the 82% unfavorable view of Congress.

Their Just-Say-No Republicans inability to govern, even when they theoretically control both Houses of Congress.

Their 64 utterly silly and failed votes to repeal Affordable Health Care.

Their shutdown of government while Cruz so emotionally read us Green Eggs and Ham.

We need to throw the details back to them at every opportunity.

4. The main reason is

we have a Racist Congress and if you think for a minute,these folks are going to support a Black Man in their White House. Well think again. There have been story after story about how the Republican Party would sooner wreck the Nations Economy than back any legislation purposed by President Obama.

5. Most likely answer: Hillary is a woman

OMG.
