"CNN Poll: GOP has edge in early midterm indicator"
Political polls go up and down.
Even so, the time frame here is pretty short and corresponds to the Obamacare rollout.
I think that might be telling us something...

On CNN's Political Ticker blog, Paul Steinhauser writes about this:
"Two months ago, Democrats held a 50%-42% advantage among registered voters in a generic ballot, which asked respondents to choose between a Democrat or Republican in their congressional district without identifying the candidates. That result came after congressional Republicans appeared to overplay their hand in the bitter fight over the federal government shutdown and the debt ceiling. But the Democratic lead evaporated, and a CNN poll a month ago indicated the GOP holding a 49%-47% lead. The new survey, conducted in mid-December, indicates Republicans with a 49%-44% edge over the Democrats."
