Daily Kos poll: Crazies love Marco Rubio. Charlie Crist in wrong race
Naked Politics —
... The poll has loads of stuff and is at this link here. It asked Republicans if they believed Barack Obama was U.S. born. 35 percent said yes, 29 said no and 36 percent were unsure. When the Kos analyzed the cross-tabs of the birther/nonbirthers, it found a "clear correlation. The crazier the Republican, the better Rubio does. Of the sanest Republicans -- those who don't buy into the crazy birther conspiracy theories, only 16 percent support Rubio compared to the whopping 73 percent who support Crist.

Shock poll: Rubio within 10 points of Crist in Florida posted at 5:32 pm on November 19, 2009 by Allahpundit Share on Facebook | printer-friendly Yeah, it’s a dKos poll , but as I’ve told you before, their pollster’s okay. Kos himself thinks Crist is all but finished . For once, I’m inclined to agree with him. These trendlines are bleak for Crist, and there’s little chance of him surviving. Remember, Rubio hasn’t spent a dime on media yet. This is all grassroots driven, and the teabaggers are engaged, angry, and looking for the next Scozzafava. Crist ...

Current 2010 Senate Outlook: Net Republican Gain of 4 Seats
Previous forecast, 11/17: Republican net gain of four seats
New polls: Arkansas, Florida, Missouri
Rankings change: As Rubio gains in the Republican primary and as Meek gains on Rubio in the general election, Florida moves ahead of North Carolina and Louisiana.
Commentary: It is worth noting that while the Senate forecast has been stuck on a Republican net gain of four for the entire month of November, it seems more likely that the situation ...
FL-Sen, FL-Gov: Rubio Keeps Getting Closer

... their marginalization... but it's that same marginalization (real or not) that fuels the very sense of victimization that's at the root of their anger:
"There are a lot of Republicans that don't have the inclination to go to executive committee meetings....There is wide swath of republican voters out there that don't necessarily listen to cable tv all the time."
With that in mind, let's take a look at the latest poll of the race (from late last week):

Bombshell: Crist 43, Rubio 43

... Rubio’s name recognition has grown in recent months and he is now viewed Very Favorably by 34% of Likely Primary Voters. That’s up from 18% in August. As his name recognition increased, Rubio’s support in the polls has jumped from 31% in August to 43% today. Crist, well known throughout the state, has seen his ratings go in the opposite direction. Just 19% now have a Very Favorable opinion of him, a figure that represents a double digit decline since August. Remember, the dKos poll in November of 600 Florida likely voters had Crist by 10, with 26 percent saying they view ...
FL-Sen/Gov: A Charlie Sandwich as an Indie, but He Leads Gov Primary & General
Swing State Project —
... earlier, but now we have the full memo. The primary numbers can't be seen as terribly surprising at this point, and the "Crist-as-indie" scenario is not too far off R2K's test of this matchup. They had Crist 32, Meek 31, and Rubio 27, while here, Charlie is the man-in-the-middle. One obvious option this pollsters didn't test was Crist running as a Dem. Who knows what axe Fabrizio's mysterious client has to grind, but recall that R2K showed Crist (D) beating Rubio (R) by a healthy 45-34 margin. If you're trying to ease Crist out of the Senate race, those are numbers you probably ...
