This is what jumped out at me in this morningโ€™s Wall Street Journal/NBC poll:

Congressโ€™ approval rating is at 19%, and thatโ€™s largely fueled by independentsโ€™ increasing disapproval. Per Hart, โ€œThis says to Democratic leaders, โ€˜You are not communicating. And you are not communicating with independents.โ€™โ€ That said, Democrats still enjoy a nine-point advantage on the generic congressional ballot (46%-37%). But just 39% of respondents believe their OWN member of Congress deserves re-election; 51% say itโ€™s time to give someone new a chance. Thatโ€™s a staggering number, folks. โ€œI believe that we are facing as angry and unstable an electorate as Iโ€™ve seen in my career, McInturff says. And when that happens: โ€œA lot of straight-line projections we thought will happen will not happen.โ€

Pretty good cycle to be a challenger running against both parties in Washington.
