Heartbreak for Chuck Schumer: 50% of voters think the Democrats’ agenda is too extreme

Voters continue to view the Republican agenda in Congress as more mainstream than the agenda of the Democrats.

Last week Chuck Schumer trotted out the results of the Democrats’ latest focus group and ordered his party’s other senators to begin calling the Republican agenda “extreme” in every other sentence. Now we know why.

Rasmussen has the bad news for Schumer:

We would imagine that 50% of likely voters also consider Schumer to be a complete schmuck

Voters continue to view the Republican agenda in Congress as more mainstream than the agenda of the Democrats. But only one-in-four voters think the average member of either party shares the same ideology they do.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey of Likely Voters shows that 45% say it would be more accurate to describe the agenda of Republicans in Congress as mainstream, up five points from last month. Thirty-eight percent (38%) say it’s more accurate to describe that agenda as extreme, while 17% more are undecided.

But half of voters (50%) say the Democratic agenda in Congress is extreme, while 37% see it as mainstream, also up five points from a month ago. Another 14% are not sure.

Surely Schumer finds these results disappointing in the extreme.
