WASHINGTON (Oct. 19) - With congressional elections less than three weeks away, the Republican party's approval ratings are at an all-time low, with approval of the Republican-led Congress at its lowest point in 14 years, according to an NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll released on Wednesday.

Forty-seven percent of respondents said they were less in favor of keeping Republicans in control of Congress, compared to 14 percent who were more in favor of maintaining the current congressional makeup, according to the poll.

Only 16 percent of respondents approve of the job Congress is doing, the lowest level since 1992, NBC said.

In October 1994, when Democrats held congressional majorities, Congress had a 24 percent job approval, NBC said. Democrats lost 52 House and 8 Senate seats in the 1994 midterm elections....

5. But most still want their own Congresscritter. It's them 'other guys'.

It'd be a beautiful thing to see hundreds of them voted out of office ... but that's never happened and sure won't in my lifetime.

7. There are some poll stats that indicate over half of people think

their -own- congresscritters are corrupt. I guess we'll see how that translates into votes...if they're properly counted, of course.
