<<<< The most recent PEW Research survey, 185 days before the midterm elections, confirms a huge, almost record setting, swing in voting preferences, from Socialist Democrat to Republican, a swing of of 15 points ! ______________________
Update: 42% of Republicans are more enthusiastic than usual, about 2014 while only 32% of Democrats voice enthusiasm for voting in the coming elections.

I cannot count the number of times I have written, "Obama just may prove to be the worst thing to hit the Democrat in decades." With polling results such as PEW, we may be looking at a fulfillment of that anecdotal prediction.
As things stand today, and, of course, all of these numbers can change, radically, in the coming months, but, as things stand today, preference voting for Republicans versus Democrats, is 47% to 43%.
How bad is this news, for Democrats? Seven months before the landslide/referendum elections of 2010, the populace was evenly divided 44% to 44%.
Today and again, five months before the November midterms, that number is 47 to 43 percent with 26% of the populace, voting "against the president" more than any other single consideration, making his actions between now and this coming November, a major factor. In 2010, when conservatives took back the House and "flipped" 800 local, state and gubernatorial seats to "GOP," only 20% of those voting were doing so in response to their thinking about Obama. Again, today, that number is 26%.
Of course, the only poll that means anything, is what happens "at the polls" in November. Understand, that this editor (that would be me) honestly believed that Romney would win in 2012, and win in a convincing way. I had plenty of Left Leaning polling data to justify that belief, but, in the end, I was wrong.
On that score, Nate Silver, a big time Left Leaning pollster, was the only major polling concern that predicted an Obama, 2012 victory and, as things turned out, he was correct in his predictions and as accurate with his percentages as a pollster can hope to be. This season, Nate Silver is on record as believing that the GOP will keep the House and pick up 6 to 11 seats in the Senate.
Of course, no one should start dancing in the streets, but Silver's numbers confirm that the Left is fully aware of just how bad things look for them.
Expect the Left/Socialist cabal, in power for the first time since FDR, to come out swinging, to be as nasty as "nasty" gets, to pile lie upon lie, to do everything possible to mitigate what is predicted. Understand this: the Left is not just fighting for survival in 2014; 2016 is very much in doubt as well.
The Right needs to win elections. We will, in 2014, and, we must, in 2016.
