Poll-itics: Who do Americans want in Congress? Democrats.
Quinnipiac:
Eighteen months before the 2014 elections, American voters, by a slim margin, say they are more likely to vote Democratic than Republican for Congress, which would violate the historical model of the president’s party losing ground in the sixth year of a presidency, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today.
If elections for Congress were held today, 41 percent of voters say they would vote Democratic for Congress and 37 percent say they would vote Republican, continuing a trend that began after an April 19, 2012, survey by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University showing Democrats at 40 percent and Republicans at 39 percent.

This is why we need to work and work hard for 2014. You can help MA, we have a special election coming up in sixty days. For Kerrys seat. I plan to help other states too. 2014 we must fight!
