Sounds about right to me.  Democrats have spent a lot of money in the state, which is wonderful.  I want Land to win, but if her contribution to the GOP is siphoning off a lot of money that won't be spent in NC, CO, AR, IA, etc., then that is a very worthy contribution.

Land is 2014's Linda McMahon. Decoy.

This raises some eyebrows:

Q28 (Q28-29 asked only of Tigers fans) What do
you think the outcome of the 2014 season will
be for the Tigers? Do you think they will win
the World Series, win the American League
pennant but not the World Series, make the
playoffs but not win the pennant, or not make
the playoffs at all?
Win the World Series ...................................... 19%
Win the pennant but not the World Series ...... 25%
Make the playoffs but not win the pennant...... 39%
Not make the playoffs at all............................. 9%
Not sure .......................................................... 8%

There is no way that I'd answer "Win the World Series," because I don't want to create bad juju--I imagine a whole bunch of respondents feel the same way. It's kind of interesting that Obama and Romney voters have almost identical approvals for Brad Ausmus. Though, I am surprised that men approve of him at a higher level than women. He is a member of the Handsome Club:

I'm starting to agree with this. That being said, there is still time.

I think this poll is off (the numbers are way too high). Peter's is also well under 50% at this time as well. Lastly, there are alot of reasons as to why PPP can't be trusted this cycle.

That being said I still think Peter's is ahead by a 2-4 point margin.

Is any of this based on anything besides gut feeling?

And those reasons are? Last I saw they were one of the most accurate (if not the most accurate) pollsters in 2012.

Land has just proven to be a terrible candidate. The numbers reflect that.
