NPR Polling Suggests Democrats Running Strong in Critical House Districts

A tip of the tam to Bob Englehart of The Harford Courant for the image above. Daryl Cagle's MSNBC syndicate delivers again! While I'm doubtful it will be this easy to get our voters back, the "Give them enough rope and they'll hang themselves!" strategy might have worked up to a point.

Although the actual poll is available in PDF format, I'll send you to the NPR "Morning Edition" story by Mara Liasson. With this poll narrowly examining fifty Congressional Districts that could go either way this fall, the results strongly suggest the GOP could very well lose the House.

Recalling the Republican's advantages of late in fundraising and GOTV is appropriate. I certainly hope the DNC and Progresssive organizations have people on the ground to assure a fair vote as well. With the loss of either Chamber the Bu$hCo crowd, and the GOP as a whole, can finally be forced to answer up. You know they fear this and will pull out every trick in the book to prevent.

This is going to be a fine fall for political junkies yet I'm so eager for a change in DC that I'll need to be careful not to overdose. Peace ... or War!
