Polls hurt

Rep. Robert Hurt's campaign has an internal poll showing him leading by 18 points.
Keep your cameras away from John Douglass.

Kaine's sunk

Public Policy Polling has the Senate race tied 46-46 Thursday.
The sample gives Democrats a 7-point edge.
In the real world, it means Tim Kaine is losing big.

Public Policy leans left again

Another Public Policy poll Tuesday - Obama up five.
Another Democratic lean - D+7 in a state with Republican leadership throughout the legislature.
When asked who they voted for in 2008, it's 51-44 for Obama. A bigger margin than the actual 52.6 percent to 46.3 percent.
The May poll also had D+7, and Obama led that poll by eight points.
So Romney's gaining even as the polling remains skewed.
