Mississippi rarely gets polled, but Musgrove will pick up the seat, since Wicker is such a bad candidate.

There ought to be a special color avatar for people who have admitted they do not believe their own posts.

Has any Republican senator polled below a challenger in NC, or within 5 points, in an election year before? How were Helms-Gantt polling at this time in '96?

Uh, yeah.  In fact, Helms was the only one who thought Helms could hang on in 1984, when he trailed Hunt by 20 points.

This is in response to Phil, or anyone else who happens to be curious:

I believe Musgrove will pull this race out for these reasons:
Because that would be awesome.

Dole didn't even get 55% the when she won the first time against a sucky candidate.

Dole won by the largest margin of any North Carolina Senate candidate since Watergate, Democrat or Republican.

Most intelligent people do not consider an 8.6% margin "insignificant."
