Will McCain/Palin Have Coattails?

For months we've heard how John McCain out preforms the generic GOP brand while Barack Obama under performs the Democratic brand, in a year where up till now the Democrats have held a huge lead in the generic polling.

Bu in the last few samplings of the generic congressional ballot, the gap has closed significantly, with the latest USA Today/Gallup Poll actually showing a GOP LEAD. Its first in three years. Check it:

So either the McCain/Palin ticket is showing signs of coattails, or Obama is not only turning voters off to the prospect of his presidency but to the Democratic Party all together.

If the GOP is outnumbering the left-wing illuminati, why are we going by these fictious polls? Granted a few of the right will go to the left, but a few of the left have already come to the right.
