New CNN Poll:
Quote: Democratic Party: Favorable 47%, Unfavorable 47%
Republican Party: Favorable 33%, Unfavorable 59%
The last poll before this one was from July 20th when the numbers were
Dem: Fav: 45%, Unfav 49%
GOP: Fav: 41%, Unfav 55%
Boehner's favorables in the CNN poll went from +11 (43/32) three weeks ago to -7 (33/40) now.
These are holy shit bad numbers for the GOP.

Additionally, Public Policy Polling polled CO and NC (swing states) on the fallout of the debt deal:
Public Policy Polling: Swing State Deficit Polling Quote: With such an unpopular deal it's hard to really crown a political 'winner' but to the extent there is one it's Barack Obama. Here's why Obama's the nominal winner. Among voters who support the deal, they're more prone to give Obama the credit than Congressional Republicans. And among voters who oppose the deal, they're more inclined to blame the GOP than the President. In Colorado 51% of voters who support it say Obama was more responsible to only 18% who say Congressional Republicans. In North Carolina it's a closer spread but 33% of supporters credit Obama to 30% for the GOP.
When it comes to the blame game among voters displeased with the compromise 33% in Colorado fault Congressional Republicans more to 23% for Obama and in North Carolina 35% say the GOP is more at fault to 21% who lay it more on the President.
The biggest indication that Obama came out ahead on this one may be in polls we'll release later this week though—Obama is ahead of Mitt Romney in both of these states.
The debt deal as a whole is really unpopular with just about everyone, and just about everyone thinks it'll be bad for the economy. Might be bad news for incumbents trying to get re-elected:
