I think there is a factor to the Congressional approval rating that you're missing, and that is that the polls I've seen rate the congressional Republicans lower than the Democrats, suggesting that people are aware of the stall tactics being used by the Republicans in Congress. Also, many folks on the left are very unhappy with what they see as the continued capitulation of Pelosi and Reed to the filibuster/veto threats. I think there will be coattails for the Dems this time around, but who knows, I've certainly been wrong before.
