Just a quick diary to post this breaking USA/Gallup poll which shows that if the elections were held today, Obama would beat the generic republican by three points which is a much better position than he was just two weeks ago when he was upside down 39/47.
Today they found found:
“In another question, Obama bests an unnamed Republican presidential candidate by 48%-45%, though he remains below the 50% threshold.”
Regarding the house they found:
“The 2012 election is 15 months away, which is plenty of time for the political landscape to shift. About this time before the 1994 election, when Democrats lost control of the House and Senate, dismay with Congress already was set. But a year before the 2006 election, when Democrats regained control of both houses, incumbents still had somewhat higher support.
If congressional elections were held today, Americans by 49%-45% say they would vote for the Democratic candidate over the Republican.”

I believe that all of this debt talk and crashing of the stock market has shown Americans the true colors of this GOP new crew.
Now, more people than ever realize republicans do not care about improving the lives of average americans.
