Republican leaders are beginning to stitch together their midterm election campaign agenda to increase economic growth and jobs at a time when a near majority of voters say they trust the GOP more than the Democrats to handle the economy.

With the Gallup Poll reporting this month that 66% of voters say the economy is getting worse, and the Economic Confidence Index falling to minus 34, “the lowest weekly average since last July,” support for the Democrats’ and Barack Obama’s failed economic stimulus has collapsed.

A recent Rasmussen Poll of 1,000 likely voters showed that they trust Republicans more by 48% to 39% on the economy, “an issue that has consistently been the most important among voters for several years,” the polling group said.

GOP leaders now think the country is ready to swing their way in November on a popular growth agenda based on keeping tax rates low, cutting government spending, and market-based incentives to help businesses increase reinvestment and sharply boost the pace of new job creation.
