CNN POLL: 55%-42%, Dems lead LIKELY VOTERS for 2006
http://www.pollingreport.com/2006.htm

This is actually bigger than the last one they ran. Republicans can claim they've made a turn around all they want. These idiots don't understand basic American congressional politics. ALL IT TAKES to win Congress is a 5-6% turn around in the overall vote. Remember 1994? The Republicans only won 50-44%. That's not a landslide. Which means if Democrats mimic that, they easily take the House with a couple of comfortable extra seats, and if they win upwards of 52-53% of the vote, it's a done deal. No amount of gerrymandering could save the Republicans. It barely saved Mean Jean's ass in the second most reliable Republican district in Ohio.

They can't stop us. Let the idiot brigades at Fox and Talk Radio trumpet a few Fox polls all they want.

My God- the machines still aren't fixed, and I sure am worried about more stolen elections!

2. Yeah, but this doesn't take into account the surge of last-minute voters..
...who opt to vote REPUBLICAN because of their concern for Security issues. Come on, play along. Be a good little sheep.

8. People we all need to phone bank and go door to door for our dems
