WSJ/NBC News Poll Points To Disaster For Democrats



Confidence in President Obama and outlook for the United States is waning, according to the latest Wall Street Journal/NBC News Poll. (Click here for the full poll results.)

62% of adults feel that the country is on the wrong track, which is the highest number since 2008. Also, more people disapprove of the job Obama is doing than approve.

57% now favor replacing their elected representative in congress, which is a bad omen for incumbents, particularly Democrats. This is the highest number in 18 years.

According to the Wall Street Journal:

For Democrats, the results underscore the potential for major losses in November. Both parties have been forced to contend with an anti-establishment wave this year. But Republicans, through strong fund raising and candidate recruitment, have put enough seats in play in the House and Senate to give the GOP a realistic shot at winning control of both chambers.


Even confidence in the job President Obama is doing by Democrats is in decline. 17% of Democrats now disapprove of Mr. Obama's job performance. This is the highest of his presidency.

This is good news for Republican candidates such as Mark Reed, who is running against a Democrat incumbent in a usually solid Democratic district in the San Fernando Valley. Reed emailed me tonight, "Without the Democrat and Decline to State [vote], we came within 5,700 votes [during the primary election] of the incumbent. We can and we will restore America for the people."

Unless something earth-shaking occurs, the Democrats will be facing disaster in the November elections.
