New WaPo poll: Bad news across the board for Dems

They are cratering. Generic Congressional ballot is tied, with Dems blowing an 11 point lead in 4 months.

More than seven in 10 Americans disapprove of the job Congress is doing, and as many say they’re inclined to look for new congressional representation as said so in 1994 and 2006, the last times that control of Congress shifted. . . .

When compared with the early months of Obama’s presidency, the GOP’s overall gains are striking. A year ago, Democrats held a 26-point advantage on dealing with the big issues; that lead is now six points. At the one-month mark, Obama’s lead over the Republicans on dealing with the economy was 35 points; it’s now five points.

    Mmmmmm. I wonder… The polls need to be specific in order to be seen as a referendum on Mr. O-Ilovemyself… I mean if they asked people, “Do you disapprove or approve on the job Congress is doing… I think there could be a catch 12 on the wording…

    It could mean I disapprove on the job Congress is doing because they haven’t went far enough to the left… or I wanted Free Healthcare and didn’t get it or Where is my free money or I’m pissed we didn’t bring the troops home like he said or the list goes on and on…

    Also the words “On the big domestic issues — the economy, health care, jobs and the federal budget deficit — bare majorities of Americans disapprove of the job he is doing.” They neglect to give us the specifically Numbers of all areas they poll for without the break down, and the wording, we are or may be misinformed…

    Don’t get me wrong here.. I want nothing more than Mr. O-aintIspecial to take his rightful place in history as the worst president sense Jimmy Carter which I can see if History is written in a non bias form…

    I know we surmise it as a good thing on the right side but let’s not be too enthused by the numbers the generic worded polls tell us for wording in these polls can mislead in one direction another just by how they are written…
