I just saw this on CNN Headline News. It's not even on their website yet.

In a CNN poll conducted by Opinion Research Corporation, from Aug. 30-Sept.2, with a 3% margin of error:

Likely Voter's Choice for who they will vote for in Congress:

Democrat 53%
Republican 43%

Your feelings about how things are going in the country:

Content 21%
Angry 76%


And worst of all for Republicans:

What issue is most important for your vote for Congress?

Economy 28%
Iraq 25%
Terrorism 18%
Moral issues 15%
Immigration 14%

Today's New York Times, Monday, September 4, 2006, has a front page story that discusses not just the conservatives, but the Republicans in general and the chance that they could lose control of both the House of Representatives and the Senate because of the sentiments that you have shown above.

Remember - it isn't who votes, it's who counts the votes. Don't be surprised it November turns out to be "same ol' same ol'". However, if we do get one or both houses back - presupposing the Dems manage to get rid of the Lieberman R-Lites - we can start undoing the damage of the last 5 years. W is nothing without Congress - and he has no political skills, so he's unlikely to get anything like what Clinton accomplished under the same circumstances (of course, it's not the same circumstances unless they impeach W, too - and even then W won't have to have lived with 10 years of personal attacks like Clinton did). Unfortunately, "It's the economy AGAIN, stupid!"
