Does the Mason Dixon poll lean to the right?
I'm looking at their results with amazement. Chafer is now leading, Corker is up by 12, and Montana is tied? I can believe that montana is tied but the other two I don't.

3. I think that they do lean right
but what worries me is that they need a poll to point to if they try to pull this off by voter fraud and suppression. This gives them a poll to point to and say see there was a poll that said we were winning, guess that one was right. I have no doubt that the races that are close are winnable by the dem candidate but these are the ones that need to watched at the polling places most closely.

4. all their poll is from RV only, not LV.
In TN, there is a series of polls since the Corker ad showing that the ad has worked. RI is surprising. The issue here is to know who among these registered voters will go to vote and who will not.

5. The Rasmussen poll also show MT to have narrowed
RI was always going to be closer than earlier polls showed. A one point lead is pretty meaningless. Chafee's name still carries weight in the state, though I think a lot of people there realize a republican is a republican any way you look at it.

I also think Corker's lead is exaggerated in this poll but it does appear it is slipping away from Ford.
