Poll Watch: Voters Trust Republicans More Than Democrats on Economic and National Security Issues
The latest Rasmussen poll drops this bombshell on President Obama and Congressional Democrats.
Voters now trust Republicans more than Democrats on six out of 10 key issues, including the top issue of the economy.
