Voters Do Not Trust Congressmen Who Vote For Bailouts

Fifty-seven percent (57%) of voters have more trust in those in Congress who voted against bailouts. This is a clear indication bank and UAW auto bailouts are unpopular. More Democrats than Republicans supported the bailouts. This may be a good wedge issue for Republicans. Some Democrats are appalled at the bailouts of large corporations.

Rasmussen reported:

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey shows that 57% of likely U.S. voters have more confidence in the judgment of a member of Congress who voted against bailouts than in the judgment of one who voted for them. Just 21% trust the judgment of a Congress member who voted for bailouts more. Another 22% are undecided.
