Scott Rasmussen needed to "adjust" his polls a little bit so he could make his weekly appearance on the Sean Hannity Show.
Rasmussen got every Senate race in 2006, they got every Governors race right exceopt MN. They also did very well in 2004.
A slight lead in a swing state in August means little or nothing. The next poll probably could have Obama up.
It would seem the fundies have finally awaken from their slumber. I've noticed McCain bumper stickers and whatnot all around recently. It was inevitable that the race would tighten here although I was hoping Colorado would remain "lean ABM" for just a bit longer. Now it looks like a true tossup. It is important to note that McCain has been outspending ABM here, at least on TV ads. Perhaps it's time to stop pissing away money in places like North Carolina and Georgia and start focusing on the vital states?
That may very well be the case. Indeed we may see future polls coming out with Schafer closing the gap significantly in the Senate race. That outcome may then hinge on the Presidential winner in CO.
