(Technically, the NBC poll might not be strictly a "generic ballot" poll, since it asks who you want to see control Congress, rather than who you will vote for.)

Damn you morden. My incessant need to type long-winded posts slowed me down too much!

I deleted my post in order to give you the glory.

Here's a question: Does the wording of the generic ballot question create any systematic biases?  In the Quinnipiac question wording, it asks which party "would you want to see win control of the House of Representatives"?  That's different from asking which party you are going to vote for, since you might like your own member of Congress better than the national party he/she represents.  Does that actually matter to this question, that different pollsters are asking slightly different things?
