Rasmussen: Lamont leads in the primary and is tied in the general

[Sam Spade]

Wait a second...Something here makes absolutely no sense mathematically. If Lamont is leading Lieberman 51-41 in the primary, how can he be tied with Lieberman in the general? For this to happen, Lamont has to be only trailing by a slight margin among independents and Republicans.

Or you have a large (most likely, too large) sample of Democrats who will choose to back the party choice regardless of who they support in the primary.
