A 32 percent approval rating.
For Congressional Republican leaders, according to a new Pew Research poll. The bad news for Democrats: their Congressional leaders also have a 32 percent approval rating. But the NYT reports on swelling Democratic hopes for the 2006 election. After all, the disapproval ratings are different, with the Republicans festering at 52 percent, and the Democrats somewhat less targeted for contempt at 48 percent.

You'd think that the stories in the newspapers wouldn't be "Democrats see hope" or "Republican poll numbers have them in despair"... but rather... "Polls show that Americans hate all politicians". I think thats much more accurate given the numbers.
Amen Nick!
Stories like these demonstrate how the MSM is gleeful whenever it finds a supposed nugget or tiny glimmer of evidence that the Dems may overtake the Republicans.
Sadly, a real neutral media would be calling and perhaps rooting for a strong alternative to the two dominant parties.
It's amusing that Democrats are encouraged by finding they're a bit less disagreeable than Republicans. But judging purely by my personal opinions, maybe there is something to the poll.
After voting GOP for the last several elections, I'm ready to consider voting for a moderate Democrat. The GOP has lost its way and is a far cry from the Contract With America fiscally conservative party of the 90's. What may save the GOP is that I doubt the Democrats will nominate any moderate candidates.
What they seem to be forgetting is that people often hate all politicians, except their own representatives. Some how, they are ok.
CO Rep. Tom Tancredo has recently come to national prominence for some of his public statements. A lot on the left despise him. His constituants love him, and, I am sure, will return him to office next time handily.
Of course, I could find just as many on the left who I think are just as bad - and who routinely get reelected by large margins.
