Yesterday, just before the site went down, a new Survey USA poll came out showing Republican incumbent Norm Coleman highly vulnerable in Minnesota.
7/26-7/29, 628 RVs, (February results in parenthesis)
Coleman (R): 49 (57) Franken (DFL): 42 (35)
Coleman (R): 48 (57) Ciresi (DFL): 42 (34)
That is remarkable movement against Coleman, with much more possible, since his approval rating has sunk to negative territory, 43%--48%, for the first time ever. By way of comparison, populist Democrat Amy Klobuchar's approval rating is 61-31%.
