1. This is great news!

I know we still have a long way to go, but this poll is very encouraging especially considering the dismal turnout for this week's runoff.

The Marshall campaign needs to learn from the Sestak campaign--last minute no-fuss ads defining Burr. Positive ads defining herself.

Elaine is not of Washington or Wall Street. Burr IS. Simple as that. Burr is totally bought and paid for. Most people don't know this.
