* On a generic congressional ballot, a new Gallup poll shows Democrats leading Republicans, 51% to 44%. It’s the biggest leads Dems have had in about three years. * On a related note, Public Policy Polling also shows Democrats with a seven-point lead on the generic-ballot question, 47% to 40%. * In North Carolina, PPP shows President Obama leading all of his top Republican presidential challengers, by margins ranging from three points (vs. Romney) to 13 points (vs. Cain and Palin). * In Colorado, PPP also shows the president leading the top GOP contenders, by margins ranging from seven points (vs. Romney) to 16 points (vs. Cain and Palin). * With Missouri Lt. Gov. Peter Kinder (R) struggling, state GOP officials are wondering if they have a credible gubernatorial candidate for next year. * And in Kentucky, Republican gubernatorial nominee David Williams’ campaign manager has resigned, which generally isn’t a good sign three months before Election Day.
