GOP Poll: Republicans are incompetent.
GOP Poll Shows Democrats With Key Advantages
The AP obtained partial results from a GOP poll that showed Republicans "are widely viewed by the public as less competent than Democrats to handle issue ranging from health care to education and energy."

"Democrats were favored by a margin of 61% to 29% on education; 59% to 30% on health care and 59% to 31% on energy. Congress is expected to consider major legislation later this year in all three areas."

"Democats were also viewed with more confidence in handling taxes, long a Republican strong suit. The only issue among nine in the survey where the two parties were rated as even was in the war on terror."

The results were presented to top GOP officials in Congress.

3. It's about time.
We've proven to be vastly more competent over the past 28 years. It's nice that the public now recognizes the truth.

7. That's a 2 to 1 competency gap
there is no rebranding in the world that can compensate for what the GOP lacks.
