Gallup Poll shows largest Republican lead ever

With five months to go before the general election, a new poll finds that Republicans have opened their widest lead yet when it comes to which party voters prefer this fall. Gallup's generic congressional ballot finds that the number of voters who say they will vote GOP has jumped to 49 percent, compared with 43 percent for Democrats. That's not only the biggest lead Gallup has recorded for the GOP this election cycle, it's the largest lead Republicans have ever had in the poll, which Gallup has run since 1950.

Why are Republicans surging?

According to Gallup, the GOP gained 3 percentage points in the poll over the last week, while Dems fell 4 points. All of this happened as President Obama's approval rating took a hit, especially with his handling of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill. Gallup puts Obama's approval rating at 46 percent — not exactly in George W. Bush territory, but low for this White House.

No doubt critics will question how much a generic poll really reveals about what might happen in November. After all, it's often better to break down races locally for a more comprehensive picture of how the midterm elections might go. But generic ballots are very good at telling us where voter sentiment is nationally and how enthusiastic people are — or aren't — about the political parties.

One number that Democrats are surely not pleased about is what poll experts call the "enthusiasm" gap. According to Gallup, 39 percent of Republicans are excited about the 2010 elections, compared with just 24 percent of Democrats. That's one of the leading measures of how likely it is that voters will turn out to vote, and if Democrats can't find a way to close that 15-point gap, November could be a painful month for President Obama and other party leaders.

Is he a cooler version of Jimma Carta?

[DamnYankee]

No he just has darker skin, so you think he's cool. There's nothing remotely cool about a socialist trying to destroy America from within; I don't care what the fuck color of his skin is.

[Topspin]

We'll see where the economy is in Nov, right now I attribute the fall of the democrats to them acting like typical politicians and promoting the status quo.

Topspin's a wannabee black; a "wigger". :lol:

[Topspin]

I'd put you back on ignore, but a high income tea bagger that's not rich like you is fun as shit to laugh at.

[DamnYankee]

The laugh's on you Topwigger: "a cooler version of Jimma Carta". :lol:

[DamnYankee]

Topwigger, first you think you think its cool because the president's black then you try to insult me by saying my wife blows minorities. You are nothing but a two-faced racist.

MORON

Its the only logical conclusion, TopWigger. You compared him to Carter, "except cool", and policy-(and failure-) wise he's pretty much the same, except for black. Plus you'll claim anyone who disagrees with his policies as racist.

Yeah you're a wigger all right. You probably drive a dropped honda civic with tiny wheels and spinners.

So now your saying he's can only be cool because he's black?

That's a straw man, Topwigger. Stick to "GED, KKK, poor, slut, blowjob", because your debate skills are non-existent. :lol:

I like how Southern Tool waltzed in here and didn't bother to comprehend what Topspin wrote, none of which he would have disagreed with, and began slinging insults just because he doesn't like the guy. Who does he think he is, Topspin???
