This poll was taken of 1,300 "randomly selected adults" and still the GOP trounces the DEMs. Amazing, indeed. If this trend holds up, it bodes very well for the GOP to hold the House handily, and regain the Senate. These poll numbers should spell defeat for Torricelli, Tim Johnson and others who are holding on for dear life.

I do hope the GOP regains the Senate, so Bush can get his judges approved. Then Rehnquist and O'Connor can retire as they've purportedly wanted to do for several years now. Ginsburg might just give up and retire as well. She's not in the best of health.

I do not have the numbers handy, but I think that this sort of a lead would lead to a greater victory for the GOP than in 1994! When you add to it the fact that the main issue between now and the election will be the war in Iraq, the actual vote should be a larger victory than that.

Did you know there is an interesting scenario unfolding. If Talent wins over Carnahan, the Senate may return to Republican control at once. This is now being researched in Missouri, but it seems the laws are clear that Carnahan will not return after the election and Talent would get her spot.
