Fourteen-point Democratic lead is among the widest since 1994

PRINCETON, NJ -- The latest CNN/USA Today/Gallup Poll, conducted Feb 28 to March 1, finds the Democrats holding a substantial lead over the Republicans as the party more registered voters currently support in this fall's elections for Congress. More than half of registered voters (53%) favor the Democratic candidate for the U.S. House in their district; only 39% favor the Republican.

Gallup's recent trends on this "generic ballot" question -- from October 2005 through early February 2006 -- found a smaller six to seven point lead for the Democrats. However, the current 14-point Democratic lead is similar to a 12-point Democratic lead recorded last August. It is also among the highest seen since the Republicans came into power more than a decade ago.

I'm not even close to uncorking the champagne just yet.

Knowing the Democrats, they'll still find a way to lose.

And you still have your friends at Diebold (not to mention the Kathy Harrises and Kenneth Blackwells of America) to fall back on. ;)

Actually, I saw an interview with Newt recently on some show and he was sort of nervous about the November elections...

I think the Dems are going to take back a lot of seats

the public in general is restless and usually when that happens, changes occur in congress
