GOP Leads in Generic Ballot for 25th Week

I’m still just amazed at this:

Republican candidates have bounced back to a seven-point lead over Democrats in the latest edition of the Generic Congressional Ballot.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey shows that 44% would vote for their district’s Republican congressional candidate while 37% would opt for his or her Democratic opponent.

As a life-long Republican, I’m just not used to this sort of thing. My side is always behind on the Generic Ballot. To be ahead at all is thrilling – to be ahead for nearly 6 months is downright amazing.
