...by a wide margin voters now think it would be better for the country if Democrats win control of Congress in this year’s midterm election....

If I have anything to say about it, that won't happen. I'm a hard worker, and frankly I'm irritated at the lameass Republican incumbents playing politics with the port. The facts are Dubai is an ally, the people bitching are bitching over thoughts and images--not hard facts, and the election is eight months away...a LIFETIME in politics.

Bush hasn't ever stuck his finger in the air to find which way he should move, and he shouldn't start now.

BTW, MikeA, thanks for revealing the internals on that poll--43% Democrat, eh? Bush certainly could appeal to his "base" more to bring those numbers up, but I think when the voters HONESTLY stand in the booth they aren't going to punch a chad for a 'rat; they're wusses on national security--BIG TIME.

Bush's modus operandi, from what I've seen, is to let the LameStream Media and 'rats (and sometimes panicked, pitiful Republicans) run and run and run and run until they're out of steam, then he steps in and clears the air...and he rebounds.

So let's let 'em scream and moan--the they'll eventually tire out, and the truth will finally get some air.

Another issue with the polls other than the ones you mentioned is, who are they polling? Telemarketers and pollster's do not have access to cell phone numbers, and how many people do you know that don't have cell phones? Beyond skewing the polls and wording the questions based on Liberal think tank conclusions, they also need to provide statistical data and a map showing which states were polled.

I bet time of day also comes into play. I also bet the data shows a disproportionate level of blue stater's. One last thing, how do they know the person they contact is really of the party affiliation they claim to be?
