Also interesting, and little noticed in the press, is the increasing strength of House Republicans. For a year it has been taken as gospel that Republicans will lose their House majority this November, and certainly that is still possible. But in nine polls that asked voters which party's candidate for House they would vote for, Republicans trailed Democrats by only 43 percent to 42 percent. By contrast, they trailed 42 percent to 37 percent in 21 polls in 1998 and by 43 percent to 39 percent in 25 polls in 1996, and ended up winning more seats and winning the popular vote narrowly both times. Republicans show more strength in these "generic ballot" polls than at any time since the 1995-96 budget showdown; if that continues, and if the generic numbers continue to underpredict Republican performance, Republicans stand to gain seats this cycle. http://www.jewishworldreview.com/michael/barone.html
