President Obama’s approval rating has fallen to 47 percent, and the GOP has taken a small 1 percent lead in the Generic Congressional Ballot. Interestingly, and perhaps even more importantly, the GOP is now trusted more on the issue of government ethics and corruption.

If it will remain a liability, is yet to be determined.
