once again, somebody just couldn't be more wrong. The opposite of what GTC thinks is true, it's tradition
of course, things can and do change
maybe "individual politicians" show no improvement, but the GOP has at the expense of the Democrats
One could argue the GOP had nowhere to go but up.
I think these numbers are overblown.
I also think those that say the GOP is dead aren't looking at history. There will be a regression for Dems in the midterms, there had to be. They hold way too many seats in the house, which includes a lot of historically republican seats where they were merely keeping the seat warm for a few years. The Senate has more variables to determine anything at this point.

(CBS) While Americans have become slightly more optimistic about the economy, they continue to have overwhelmingly negative perceptions of the current economic situation overall, a new CBS News/New York Times poll finds.
But while 82 percent of those surveyed say the economy is in fairly or very bad shape, just four percent blame President Obama, who has now been in office for slightly more than six months.
Instead, they blame the administration of his predecessor, George W. Bush (30 percent), Wall Street and financial institutions (29 percent), and Congress (12 percent).
Mr. Obama is seen as a better steward of the economy than Republicans in Congress. Asked who will make better decisions on the economy, a majority of those surveyed (56 percent) cited Mr. Obama. Just one in four pointed to Congressional Republicans. Still, Republicans have gained some ground here: In April, 63 percent said Mr. Obama would make better decisions.
