Nile Gardiner, writing for the Telegraph:

Leading pollster Scott Rasmussen is now predicting a 55 seat gain for the GOP in the House. His latest Daily Presidential Tracking Poll has President Obama with a presidential approval rating index of minus 17 points, with just 28 percent of the nation’s voters strongly approving of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as president, and 45 percent strongly disapproving.

While the Senate race remains extremely tight, most polls are pointing to a Republican takeover of the House. And as Michael Barone has noted, the shift to the GOP could be the biggest since 1894, let alone 1994. For President Obama, this is a nightmare scenario, with his legislative agenda lying in ruins, and facing a campaign for the repeal of his hugely controversial and costly health care reform law. November 2nd could well be the worst day for America’s Left in more than a decade, signaling the start of another conservative revolution and a firm rejection of Barack Obama’s Big Government agenda.
