We must also keep in mind that this Foley affair is SSDD for Republicans. It's galvanized and energized the core GOP voters. If midterms are indeed all about GOTV, the Foley stuff will be a net benefit for Republicans.
Ignore any poll that is not likely voter and, in fact, ignore most polls that poll registered voters and then cull from those the likely voter pool.
It's really important, from a civics standpoint, to beat the Democrats as much as possible now because the lesson from this, otherwise, is October surprise scandal-mongering works and it will just get worse from here.
It is a sad commentary that we want Republicans to win becuase the Democrats will be so awful, but that is the reality of where we are.

We cannot afford to shake them awake with Democrat victories. That would create too much mayhem to our country and our national security.
Even though it is discouraging and frustrating, this is a time when we have to rally conservatives to get active and help Republicans maintain control.
The National Tax Limitation Committee is about to launch a TV campaign to motivate our base to prevent the tax-raising Democrats from taking control. You can go to their website and help the effort: http://www.limittaxes.org/
