GOP Now Leads Donkeys In Congressional Poll

Thanks to "Hope & Change" the GOP now leads the Democrats in Congressional polling. In a recent poll on Congressional leadership, 48% of respondents believe that the GOP can do a better job than the Democrats, who were chosen by 44% of repondents. That's a reversal of 22 points in less than a year.

'This administration has pulled off an astonishing hat trick -- they have irritated Democrats, alienated independents and energized Republicans," says the Republican National Committee in a statement on the poll released this morning. "Last Tuesday's election made it official -- Americans, and especially they independent-minded voters, are soundly rejecting the big-government, over-reaching policies of President Obama and Washington Democrats. The voters have demonstrated tremendous backlash to the Obama administration's hard turn to the left. Republicans are the party of conservative problem-solvers while the Democrats have clearly demonstrated they are the party of big-government simply by the policies they have supported -- a failed stimulus package, a trillion dollar government-run health care experiment, and a job-killing national energy tax."
