I think any one poll doesn't tell you all that much. However, I think you can look at several polls (that all tell the same basic story) and draw a meaningful conclusion. That's been the story for quite a while now, though the conventional wisdom at FR has been to balk at every poll that shows Dubya and the GOP with low support.

That was foolish then and it is foolish now. Any one poll is questionable, but if all the major polls tell the same basic story, petulant denial of them isn't helpful.

I'm glad FR is beginning to realize that it is possible that public opinion can indeed shift against the GOP.

You joking? Anybody living in America over the age of 30 should be well aware that republicans were backbenchers for the 50 years preceding 1994.
