GOP getting crushed in polls

In case you haven’t noticed, the Republicans are getting absolutely killed in most elections to date this year. A lot of Democrats are fretting about the Presidential election this year. In truth, the Republicans are the ones who need to worry. Witness the article on Politico’s website entitled, “GOP getting crushed in polls, key races.” The article says:

John McCain is planning to run as a different kind of Republican. But being any kind of Republican seems like some sort of death sentence these days.

In case you’ve been too consumed by the Democratic race to notice, Republicans are getting crushed in historic ways both at the polls and in the polls.

At the polls, it has been a massacre. In recent weeks, Republicans have lost a Louisiana House seat they had held for more than two decades and an Illinois House seat they had held for more than three. Internal polls show that next week they could lose a Mississippi House seat that they have held for 13 years.

This has got to be troubling for anyone hoping McCain can pull through after 8 years of George W. Bush.
