That is very encouraging. Thanks for posting it here.

Likely voters almost universally say they are frustrated and disappointed with politics. Most say they are disgusted; more than half call themselves angry. Republicans stand to benefit; the GOP comfortably leads among likely voters who feel this way.

...

In another worrisome sign for Democrats, women now split pretty evenly between the two parties, 49 percent favoring Democrats, 45 percent Republicans. In 2006, Democrats took over Capitol Hill in part by winning 55 percent of the female vote to 43 percent for Republicans.

...

Republicans get higher marks with likely voters than Democrats on handling the economy, taxes, the deficit, job creation, immigration and national security, and on managing the federal government. Likely voters are evenly split on which party would best handle health care and Social Security.

With the economy dominating this campaign, roughly half of likely voters are confident that Republicans will bring about changes necessary to o improve things should they win control of the House or Senate, or both. Still, only 10 percent are "very confident."

Excellent news.
