Generic Congressional Ballot: Republicans 47% Democrats 39% (It is really tightening, eh?)

Rasmussen Reports ^ | 10/11/2010 | Scott Rasmussen

Due to these and other factors, the data projects that 35% of voters this year will be Republicans, while 33% will be Democrats. In the previous midterm election of 2006, the Democrats had a two-percentage point advantage. Unaffiliated voters strongly favored Democrats in 2006 and strongly favor Republicans this year.

32% Independents? Sounds like a massive shift from Dems to Independents and Independents to Pubs.

An eight-point margin in the generic ballot means the Dems are manning the lifeboats.”

And the time is now to TORPEDO those lifeboats!

What did I tell you:

[Tennessean4Bush]

Am I missing something?

I think you see the main takeaway

[fwdude]

Real charmers, aint they? Real American heroes.../massive sarc

To be completely unsarcastic, they are the most evil, treacherous enemies this country and its Constitution has ever known.

I'm usually a live-and-let-live kind of guy, not usually over the top, but they deserve nothing less than summary execution.

[Tennessean4Bush]

You are solid as a rock!

[Tennessean4Bush]

32% will be independents. That’s where the story is.

And independents, in poll after poll, are breaking almost 2-1 in favor of the GOP.

The Zero has lost the SWV forever. (Stupid Whitey Vote)

He won’t get them back. Stupid Whitey is trying to look intelligent by not committing until late.

It’s late and Stupid Whitey has finally figured out that duh “He’s dumber than I am”! The numbers will grow.

That’s the difference.

“I agree though - none of these numbers mean quit now and coast! I’m doing the opposite - and with a spring in my step as I doorbell!”

Off to phone bank tonight, and I am bringing a friend.

[DadOfFive]

Ha, and add to that the zip for his area is 60606. Coincidence, I think not.

[SeattleBruce]

“Off to phone bank tonight, and I am bringing a friend.”

Awesome - this is why we’ll win big on 11/2 - neighbor to neighbor - dispelling the myths of the TV ads and dispensing the truth.

[Tennessean4Bush]

Off to phone bank tonight, and I am bringing a friend.

Wonderful! Way to go!

Thank You! Last weeks result was noise and Ras even suggested this themselves when they took last weeks result. This is actually a 2% increase of the previous poll taken 2 weeks ago which was GOP +6% so this shows voters continually breaking towards the GOP.

[techno]

Consider last week as like the Battle of the Bulge, Obama’s last-ditch effort to save himself from disaster.

[fwdude]

What's bizarre is that Zero's approval rating has been drastically improved over the past 2 weeks - still negative, but improved. Overall disapproval was at just 51% today.

Perhaps with the 3-day falling off, we'll see a more congruous reading?

[PATRIOT1876]

I won’t really be happy until its 93% Republican, 2% RINO and 3% Dem.....1% would be undecided or Independent.

This is what I hope for election day!

[GEC]

There are no lifeboats.

They’re all just going to drown.

In this post WWII era, we have NEVER seen numbers like this.

The only issue after the election will be the lame ducks and the filibustering Senate covering for the Present.

[Tzimisce]

....but did they factor in dead people who always break for Democrats?

[skaterboy]

Seems like Scotty didnt wanna be out all alone picking big while every one was screaming about tightning so he pulled back but now that its blown out again he blows it out again too...

The Zero has lost the SWV forever. (Stupid Whitey Vote)

Oh there's still plenty of em. i.e. Austin, San Francisco.
