BECAUSE OF O'BOMBER!Yep, the Marxist Messiah is real popular and his "popularity" is killing demoscats chances for reelection.
So now, we have far left loon Socialist demoscat comrades of O'Bomber trying to run their reelections on Republican issues. You know, tax cuts, balancing the federal budget...and...border security. All issues these Socialist comrades of the Marxist Messiah have vehemently voted against...over and over and over again.
These Socialist comrades are lying through their teeth to voters in hopes no one will notice.
Their ads also don't mention they're demoscats. They hope no one connects them to the Socialist demoscat party joined at the hip to their comrade in chief...the Marxist Messiah, O'Bomber.
Poll: Most Would Vote for the GOP Because of Obama

President Barack Obama's low approval rating is hurting the chances of congressional Democrats in the midterm elections, a new poll has found.
According to a McClatchy-Marist poll conducted Aug. 4 of 1,035 adults, 42 percent of voters say their negative views of the president make them more likely to vote for a Republican in November rather than a Democrat.
The poll also found that, for the first time during this election cycle, more people said they'd vote for a Republican than a Democrat for Congress, at 43 percent compared to 38 percent. And the preference for Republicans holds across regions and gender.
"The Democrats are sputtering," said Lee Miringoff, director of the Marist Institute for Public Opinion, in a statement.
Obama's job approval rating is hovering at a near historic low for the poll of 40 percent, comparable to other polls in recent weeks.
The results of the survey mark a significant divergence from voters' opinions earlier in the year.
In December, the survey found that voters were evenly split in their support for the two major parties, while in February, a majority favored the Democrats by a margin of 2 percent. In April, the public favored Democrats by 6 percent at 48 percent to 42 percent, the poll noted.
Independents appear to have the most influence on the shifting numbers, offering a 12-point margin of support for Republicans over Democrats, the poll found.
"More people see themselves as independents, and those people seem to have bailed on Obama," Miringoff said.
Democratic candidates, meanwhile, appear to be aware of the negative effect the president's approval rating is having on their chances, and are increasingly focusing on issues that traditionally belong to the GOP, according to Politico.
Specifically, many Democrats are discussing issues such as balancing the budget, tax cuts, and border security in their advertising, while failing to mention their party affiliation.
"It's pretty clear why Democrats would charade as Republicans in districts coast to coast — on every big issue, voters prefer Republicans to Democrats," Liesl Hickey, the NRCC's executive director, told Politico.
"But by portraying themselves as something they are not, these Democrats are playing a dangerous game that is destined to backfire with voters."
