GALLUP: GOP Takes Unprecedented 10-Point Lead on Generic Ballot...

Editor's notes: the significance of this development should not escape us. It has been years since the GOP had any sort of lead as relates to the "generic" ballot. Understand that this category of comparison means to pit unnamed Republican opponents against unnamed Democrat opponents. When used as a predictor of midterm elections, as is the case this year, the "generic ballot" has been proven accurate to a factor of 1.1 % -- which means to say that it is extremely accurate as an election forecast agent.

But, it is not that the GOP is simply ahead in the generic ballot polling, it is 10 points ahead, the highest separation for the GOP in the history of the Gallup poll, dating back to 1947.

Unless the Dems can figure out how to side with the American people on at least one major political issue, their defeat in the coming elections may be of a historical margin. They have time to turn this around, to a degree, but the stage will be set by the end of September, for the most part.

Tonight, Obama will address the American people on the war in Iraq - of all things - at a time when jobs are nearly non-existent, just two weeks following the establishment of a nuclear Iran under the Obama watch, at a time when Syria is in full partnership with Iran as they build a military alliance in Venezuela, after it has become known that China is doubling the size of its military at all levels and on the eve of another round of terrible financial numbers with regard to housing and employment.

It is this kind of political ineptitude that has run the numbers up on the generic ballot poll. As a conservative pundit, we are disappointed in the GOP for its failure to get its ideas "out there." That being said, this election cycle is all about the Democrats, their arrogance in governance and their profound disconnect with the American people.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
