New Gallup Poll: Tea Party Less Popular than Russia, Communist China

FDL

There’s not many surprises in the new Gallup poll about the Tea Party.

The poll found that, surprise!, 70% of Teabaggers are conservatives, which means the 43% of the movement’s so-called “independents” are white men voters who pull the lever for the GOP, but don’t want to call themselves Republicans after George W. Bush’s pooch-screwing and with the cast of clowns currently running the party.

What’s interesting, however, is that only 37% of Americans view Teabaggery favorably.

Translation: the Teabaggers are really unpopular.

By comparison, President Obama’s favorability number is nearly 20 points higher at 55% — while Russia and China come in at 47% and 42% respectively.

The good news for the Teabaggers is they are still slightly more popular than Saudi Arabia (35%) and the Quitter (36.8%).
