Rasmussen, in its weekly summary of polling reports:
"This summer brought a significant shift in voter preferences in the Generic Congressional Ballot. Republican congressional candidates once again lead Democrats by a 43% to 38% margin this week, the ninth straight ballot on which the GOP has held a modest advantage. It is important to note, however, that the recent shift is not because Republicans have been gaining support, but because Democratic support has been falling."

2. Why do you think Republicans seem unable to take advantage of it?
