Congressman Conyers: More Good News
"The signs now point to the most likely outcome of Democrats gaining control of the House," said Robert Erikson, a Columbia University political science professor.

What leads to these conclusions? A new AP-IPSOS poll that has President Bush's approval rating at its lowest ever: 33%. Moreover, an astounding 19% of those polled who voted for Bush in 2004 indicated they would be voting for a Democratic Congressional candidate in 2006.

Another surprise came in the level of support that the President has from the South. Bush's approval ratings from this region "dropped from 43 percent last month to 34 percent as the GOP advantage with Southern women disappeared."

This is all a sign of our opportunities. Let's make sure we make every effort to take advantage of this environment to return a Democratic majority.

1. That made me a little happier. But
I think the only way to take me out of my gloom would be for the Democrats to win back the house. If that doesn't happen well, I'll cross my fingers and hope it doesn't get tooo much worse. I mean really, how bad CAN things get?
