"And a recent poll showed that 48% of the American people still think the GOP controls Congress!"

Exactly! I'd like to see the poll if the question was asked like this:

"Now that the Democrats control Congress, do you approve of the job Congress is doing, or disapprove of the job Congress is doing?"

"Now that the Democrats control Congress, do you approve of the job Congress is doing, or disapprove of the job Congress is doing?"

Or even better:

"Now that the Democrats control Congress, and have an approval rating in the single digits, do you approve of the job Congress is doing, or disapprove of the job Congress is doing?"

Since the Democrats took control of Congress in 2006 on promises of a better economy, lower fuel prices, more jobs, better schools, protected borders, and a peaceful end to the WOT based on diplomacy, how would you rate them on a scale of minus 100 to plus 100?
