(R)assmussen Poll: DE Senate--Coons 53% O'Donnell 42%

[WI_DEM]

Well, good news from the House of RAS--if Coons can keep that kind of favorabilty rating he should continue to poll well.

Rasmussen

Delaware

2010 Senate
53% Coons (D), 42% O'Donnell (R) (chart)

Favorable / unfavorable
Chris Coons: 58 / 34
Christine O'Donnell: 42 / 54

1. And this is Raz. That unfavorable rating for Christine is

really something.

Here's hoping it soars even higher on the Unfavorable side of the scale.

Vote Coons, Delaware.

2. A mentally ill psychopath polls at 42%?

Get me outa here! :puke:

6. That really shows how invested most people are in one party or another

If it were sustained, it might show that the lowest a republican would get in DE is 42%. But, a nice post on the Blue Mass group shows that we can't be complacent. http://www.bluemassgroup.com/diary/20824/why-christine-odonnell-won

I think we have a huge chance to beat her, but it is clear the Republicans will try to "clean up" her messes - and many may see just a pretty woman saying thing that they will not object to (ie not the nonsense that she was said). Remember that there are STILL people who support Palin.

8. If they can clean up her image and undo what Karl Rove said about her on Fox in 6 weeks

...I'll move to Saudi Arabia :puke:

10. I'm with you - but I do think valid points are made in the link I posted

I hope the 54 negative is "committed negative" - as in not over my dead body.

3. That lead will only broaden

as Delawarians(is that correct?) wake up and see what the GOP has released on them.

4. Then Coons leads by 16

Always +5 to the Democrat in a Raspberry poll.

5. PPP poll had it at 50% Coons : 36% O'dummy

So, I would put the 11 point Rasmussen spread in some perspective.

Raz is an automated phone survey, which means no cells, and largely older participants.

9. PPP is automated.*

7. This would be absolutely hilarious.

After all of the media attention she's gotten in the last 48 hours to only have her crash and burn in the GE would be amazing.
