WSJ: Dems think they can win despite Biden

The Wall Street Journal reports “congressional Democrats are polling to make sure they are running ahead of Mr. Biden in their districts and privately citing those poll numbers as evidence that they can win despite Mr. Biden, not because of him.”

That may be true, if these Democrats weren’t all on record supporting Joe Biden’s agenda 100% of the time.

Gallup: “The president’s party almost always suffers a net loss of U.S. House seats in midterm elections. However, losses tend to be much steeper when the president is unpopular. In Gallup’s polling history, presidents with job approval ratings below 50% have seen their party lose 37 House seats, on average, in midterm elections. That compares with an average loss of 14 seats when presidents had approval ratings above 50%.”

NRCC Comment: “Joe Biden is going to be an anchor around the neck of every single Democrat in Congress. They backed his agenda, now they are going to reap the consequences.” – NRCC Spokesman Mike Berg
