Gallup's generic polling shows the number of voters saying that they would vote for Republicans rising three points from last week, while the number saying they will vote for Democrats dropped four points.
The 49%-43% lead for the Republicans is the largest that the pollster has ever recorded for the party. Moreover, Democratic enthusiasm for voting this fall fell a point, while enthusiasm among Republicans stayed about fifteen points higher. This indicates an even wider lead for Republicans once Gallup imposes a likely voter screen this fall.
The Republican lead may increase as the gulf oil spill continues to be viewed as “Obama’s Katrina.”
Obama’s three hours spent in the gulf last week was only his second visit to the gulf coast since the disaster began last April. It takes him more than three hours each time he plays golf.
