Convention rejuvenates GOP - USATODAY.com

In the new survey, more voters call themselves Republicans. Now 48% say they're Democrats or lean to the Democratic Party; 47% say they're Republicans or lean to the GOP.

Not since February 2005, right after Bush's second inauguration, have Republicans been within a single point of Democrats in party identification.

What's more, voters by 48%-45% support the Democratic candidate in their congressional district, the party's narrowest advantage this year.

Have the democrats totaly blown this election? Will Palin help GOP candidates down ticket? Yes to both.

Who wants to be a democrat these days? I left the party once they broke all promises and nominate the idiot one. People gave them a chance in 2006 and they have lies, cheated and failed them. People are not stupid, they know liberals are not for us and have left the party in large numbers.
