Results from a new national survey from the Pew Research Center should
strike fear into the hearts of incumbents in Congress, especially
those who are members of the Republican Party. A record number of
respondents want to vote sitting lawmakers out of office, and
Republicans take more of the blame than Democrats for perceptions of a
do-nothing Congress.

According to the Pew Research report, two-thirds (67 percent) of
registered voters nationwide say "most members of Congress" should be
voted out of office in 2012, while only 20 percent want most members
reelected. This desire to fire all incumbents marks a record level of
discontent since the Pew Center started asking the question 18 years
ago, far exceeding previous highs of 57 percent in 2010 and 56 percent
in 1994.
