A new Gallup poll shows Democrats leading by seven points over Republicans in a generic ballot as to which party they prefer to control Congress in 2013-2014.
This is a wider lead at this point than Republicans had in 2009, which led to a GOP House of Representatives!
The support of the Tea Party is very tepid, and it seems as if the alliance of the Tea Party with the GOP may backfire on them, and lead to the Republicans being pushed out of majority control after only two years, well justified as the Republicans have done nothing positive on the issue of jobs and the economy, and instead have simply stood in the way as obstructionists to President Barack Obama!
All elections are local. Poll after poll indicates a dissatisfaction with Congress but the same people indicate satisfaction with their representative or senator. We wish to vote the other state’s congressmen/women out, not ours.
