Same pollster saying millenial support for Dems. is waning has Dems +11 in generic ballot

Pundits today are going gaga over a Reuters/Ipsos poll pretending that millenial support for Democrats is "waning".

But the same pollster gives Democrats the largest lead of any pollster (11%) over the GOP ahead of the midterms, a lead way larger than what's needed to retake the House majority.

Analysts say Democrats need about a 6% lead to gain a House majority. This 11% lead should be among the top news in every newspaper and political website. But they go with the anti-Democratic line because it's the mainstream media we're talking about.
