Poll: Voters trust GOP more than Democrats on 8 of 10 key issues

Congressional Democrats marching to the beat of Barack Obama may be heading over a cliff. The 2010 midterm elections will be here sooner than anyone realizes and it's looking like Democrats will pay for Obama's hubris and incompetence.

From Rasmussen Reports:

Voters now trust Republicans more than Democrats on eight out of 10 key electoral issues, including, for the second straight month, the top issue of the economy. They've also narrowed the gap on the remaining two issues, the traditionally Democratic strong suits of health care and education.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that voters trust the GOP more on economic issues 46% to 41%, showing little change from the six-point lead the party held last month. This is just the second time in over two years of polling the GOP has held the advantage on economic issues. The parties were close on the issue in May, with the Democrats holding a one-point lead.

Voters not affiliated with either party trust Republicans more to handle the economy by a 46% to 32% margin.
