Interesting news from the Gallup poll. For the first time since September 11th, the Democrats have pulled ahead of Republicans in a generic congressional election survey. Actually by seven points. Put this in the context of another poll released yesterday showing the president dropping to 76% approval.

Now, let’s be honest enough to concede that 76% is still an astonishingly good number. And after months of getting slaughtered in the polls, it wouldn’t really do for Dems to start crowing the moment they get an encouraging read.

But it does look like something’s happening here.
