New poll: 60% thinks America on the wrong track, Republicans better on National Security than Democrats

A poll conducted by left-leaning groups no less. Interestingly, they omitted health care, the big thorn in the sides of Democrats, and yet they still suffer.

The poll also found weaknesses for the Democrats on other issues ahead of November elections, in which they hope to defend their strong majorities in Congress.

The poll found 60 percent of Americans believe the United States is on the wrong track. It also found that people rated Democrats at about the same level as Republicans, in what amounted to an erosion of the advantage Democrats have held.

"We would not want the election to be held today, with this poll," said Democracy Corps' chief pollster Stan Greenberg. "If the election were held today, this would be a 'change' election."

Captain Wonderful it turns out, isn't so wonderful particularly when it comes to the economy, Iran, and terrorist interrogations. I just wonder how big the GOP comeback will be?

Update: A nugget I missed:

The Democracy Corps-Third Way survey released Monday finds that by a 10-point margin -- 51 percent to 41 percent -- Americans think the standing of the U.S. dropped during the first 13 months of Mr. Obama's presidency.
