apples and oranges.
one poll - ZOGBY - highlights the differences between overall congressional approval ratings today versus overall congressional approval ratings ten months ago.
the other polls - GALLUP, HARRIS, FOX, ABC, USA TODAY, PEW, CNN - highlight the differences between the specific approval of congressional democrats today versus congressional republicans today.
but keep running away from that. you have done it pretty much non-stop for months now....everytime a new poll gets released - whether it is Harris or Fox or ABC or CBS or Gallup or CNN or Pew... you run away for a week or so and then, after that, claim that the poll is old. it really is pretty standard RSR fare. Poll after poll after poll that asks the public to distinquish between their approval of the democrats in congress and the republicans in congress shows the same thing: democrats beat republicans.... every single time.
Seriously....go spend a little time on these two pages and then lets talk about them:

I'll wait.
I doubt that he will do it. It is clear to me, as it should be clear to everyone here, that RSR is not going to admit the obvious. Concerning approval ratings, polls show that congressional democrats have a higher approval rating than do congressional republicans. Your statements and links could not be simpler or more easily understood but I doubt that RSR will ever admit to even that statistical fact.
