Voters Support House Cut, Cap and Balance Act

From Daily Caller:
Cut, Cap, and Cut the Crap -- According a new CNN poll, America is saying Yes, Please, and Thank You to Cut, Cap, and Balance. Ed Morrissey at Hot Air writes: "Harry Reid might consider the Cut, Cap, and Balance Act the worst piece of legislation in the history of, well, legislation, but he doesn't get much company among American adults. In the latest CNN poll, two-thirds of voters favor the idea of tying a raise in the debt ceiling to spending caps and a balanced budget amendment, and this isn't a survey of conservative-leaning likely voters, either... The CCB/BBA approach wins majorities in every single demographic — including self-described liberals. Sixty-three percent of Democrats back the House bill. The least supportive age demographic is 50-64YOs at 62/37; the least supportive regional demographic is the Midwest at 61/39. Even those who express opposition to the Tea Party support it 53/47. In other words, it's a clean sweep. Simply put, there is no political demographic at all where the CCB/BBA doesn't get majority support." Yeah, b-b-but... Dead grandmas! Big Oil! 
The Senate needs to pass this bill and Obama needs to sign it. Both are unlikely.
