The GOP's numbers are plunging:

the Republican Party is now viewed favorably by 28% of Americans, down from 38% in September. This is the lowest favorable rating measured for either party since Gallup began asking this question in 1992.

Thanks, Eddie. A two-man police department in a one-horse town back in the 1950's could do just that with their eyes closed.

EYES on the PRIZE, guys: Taking back the House. Keeping the Senate. Send the teabaggers into political exile where they belong, defanged, declawed, and decisively isolated.

Just don't drop your guard! Not for a second. Remember the warning Mad-Eye Moody always gave to Harry Potter: "CONSTANT VIGILANCE!!!"

(6,440 posts)RCP averages show a slight uptick in the Prez's approval ratings, but nothing major...yet. Hopefully the trend will continue (it usually takes a week or so for events to make a difference in the poll averages), but I think the celebrations are a little premature. And yes, I know RCP is a Republican-leaning site, but their polling data is usually sound (or "skewed", as the Tea Party cult would say).

(406 posts)Anything with a presidential approval rating above 10% and a Republican approval below 90% is a skewed poll fabricated by a communist Jewish conspiracy cooked up by the satanic muslim brotherhood led by the devil's own army of invisible terminator machines...or, what you guys refer to as "The Flying Spaghetti Monster".
Follow the meatballs, folks!

My suggestion - do nothing, just let them keep acting like Republicans.
