Dayton's has had the bigger drop, from 58% to 43% since the January 2004.

Coleman's has dropped from 54% to 47% since January 2004.

Obviously, this is a bigger concern for Dayton.  Not only is he up for re-election sooner, but historically, Star-Tribune polls lean about 5-8% Democrat anyway.

Charlie Cook, at the independent Cook Report says that Dayton is now the most vulnerable incumbent now for 2006 (even more than Santorum, Chafee or Nelson (FL)).

I tend to agree with his analysis.
