Holy smokes, I’d put this in breaking news.

This is great news. For months I have worried the Republicans had peaked too soon. I couldn’t imagine voter anger persisting all the way through Election Day at the intense levels we’ve seen since the health plan passed last March. But if anything, it appears to have amplified, culminating in what I hope will be a “wave election” of nearly unprecedented historical magnitude.

I voted last Wednesday and hope that everyone at FR makes a point to cast their vote rather than just sit back and assume the teanami will arrive without anyone needing to lift a finger.

"But unlike 1994, when polls indicated the public had a positive view of the Republican party, a majority of Americans now do not have a favorable view of the GOP," says CNN Polling Director Keating Holland.

Yeah, CNN--get that "but" in there. The obvious (and omitted) fact is that if the public does not have a favorable view of republicans, and yet they still prefer republicans by 10% over the democrats, they must have a really, really unfavorable view of democrats.

Seeing as this was done by CNN, you can add an additional +15 to the GOP side.

The GOP's 10 point advantage in the "generic ballot" question in a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation national survey released Sunday is slightly larger than the seven point advantage in 1994.

Slightly larger? Slightly? 45% (appx.) is slight?

“But unlike 1994, when polls indicated the public had a positive view of the Republican party, a majority of Americans now do not have a favorable view of the GOP,” says CNN Polling Director Keating Holland.

So Mr. Keating, what then is the public view of the current Administration?

Oh....I get it. Non existent. They do not factor in do they.

The worse the news is for Democrats the funnier the spin from the MSM.

We’ve eclipsed 50 percent. Cue the tsunami.

"But unlike 1994, when polls indicated the public had a positive view of the Republican party, a majority of Americans now do not have a favorable view of the GOP,"

That's hardly a disclaimer. Most of us here on Free Republic don't have a favorable view of the GOP. It's the Tea Party candidates (running under the Republican banner) that is motivating us this year.

The establishment RINO Republicans who gave us John McCain and are planning to shove Mitt Romney down our throats in 2012 are just as scared as the Democrats are these days.

"But unlike 1994, when polls indicated the public had a positive view of the Republican party, a majority of Americans now do not have a favorable view of the GOP," says CNN Polling Director Keating Holland.

As long as the GOP is run by people like Karl Rove, Michael Steele and Mitt Romney, I would agree. The battle to take back the country starts with the battle to take over the Republican Party. That task is far from finished.

This article as so many others NOW, and in the past few weeks, months actually since it was determined the DemoRATS have thoroughly pissed MOST everybody off is IMO more disinformation. My belief is the spread is much more than ten points.

The Left OWNS the media other than say Fox, and sometimes that appears to be a convenience to the Left as well.

At this time I don’t get excited about much of what I read in anticipation of a “Republican Tsunami”, or however the current article of read portrays the coming event as all too often there is an ulterior motive such as trying to make it seem the battle is over so we drop our guard, don’t vote, whatever in their benefit.

No matter what you read (I/we already voted) the Fat Lady sings on Tuesday. Everybody that hasn’t voted to block the Obama agenda yet by choosing Conservatives for office must do so by Tuesday evening to hear the Fat Lady sing the tune they want to hear.

“CNN Genenic Ballot Poll (Republicans 52-42 Dems)”

That’s an optimistic number. However we can’t count our chickens because law-breaking RATS, at this very hour, are engaged in derailing the election by way of fraudulent voting. And with the thugs in charge of the justice department, we can’t get too optimistic.

[null and void]

Genenic Ballot Poll?

It’s in our DNA?

[montag813]

If this is accurate we are looking at 1994 on steroids

[traderrob6]

Real Clear Poltics now has the Generic Poll average at Republicans +7.8%. That is a record spread.

“But unlike 1994, when polls indicated the public had a positive view of the Republican party, a majority of Americans now do not have a favorable view of the GOP,” says CNN Polling Director Keating Holland.

Mr. Holland says this as though it mitigates the damage to Democrats. Actually the opposite is true. The reason why the public does not have a favorable view of the GOP is because Republicans have behaved too much like the Democrats.

As if we need help understanding this, people are NOT in a trusting mood. This is NOT a mandate for the GOP as usual. This is a 'restraining order' on galloping socialism as PJ O'Rourke put it recently.

What we need is a new brand of GOP - we need TEApublicans to restore the public perception of the limited Constitutional government brand!

Why is today’s ten percent lead only ‘slightly better’ than the 7% lead the GOP enjoyed in advance of the ‘94 elections? To me, in politics, that’s a significant increase.
