While this is good news, take anything from Luntz with a grain of salt. He was reprimanded by the American Association for Public Opinion Research for not disclosing questions or techniques, and he pissed off the Republicans by feeding them very misleading polls on the Contract With America. (Basically he'd asked people if they were against waste in government; when they said yes, he interpreted this as support for the Contract. Newt & Co. bought it, much to their eventual regret.) And he did the famous more people believe in UFOs than Social Security poll - without disclosing that respondents wanted SS, they just doubted its longevity.
