The Browning of America: Blunt Edges Carnahan in Missouri
In a Hitler Poll.
Again, the caveat: This is based partly on the health care issue, which may not be an issue for too much longer.
Republican Roy Blunt now holds a six-point lead over Democrat Robin Carnahan in Missouri’s race for the U.S. Senate.
A new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of likely voters in the state finds Blunt ahead of Carnahan 49% to 43%. Three percent (3%) prefer some other candidate, and five percent (5%) are undecided.
The latest numbers mark a shift in Blunt’s favor from last month when Carnahan had a narrow 46% to 44% edge over her Republican rival. The candidates, both members of prominent Missouri political families, were tied at 46% apiece in September. As it has for other Democrats throughout the nation, the health care issue appears to be creating challenges for Carnahan. Just 37% of Missouri voters favor the health care plan proposed by President Obama and congressional Democrats, but 62% oppose it.

Oh: A Field Poll finds Tom Campbell has jumped ahead of DeVore and Fiora, but trails Boxer by 10, 48-38.
The others are further behind.
