Obama Leads McCain as Bush, GOP Hit Record Lows

"Americans are gloomier about the direction of the country than at any point since 1992, and Democrats have matched their biggest advantage in 25 years as the party better able to deal with the nation's main problems," according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.

"Overall, Democrats enjoy a 21-point advantage over Republicans as the party best-equipped to handle the nation's problems."

However, in a general election match up, Sen. Barack Obama leads Sen. John McCain, 51% to 44%, indicating McCain "continues to elude some of the anger aimed at his party and at President Bush."
