Poll: McCaskill Leads by 3

Most recent polls have shown Jim Talent with a narrow lead within the margin of error. Rasmussen (a firm that correctly called every state in the 2004 electoral college vote) today announced a poll that shows McCaskill leading Talent 45% to 42%.

The actual announcement is premium content, so I don't unfortunately have the opportunity to give you the other numbers (sample size, margin of error, registered voters vs. likely voters). Take this with a grain of salt; it's close, quite probably within the margin of error and it may be an outlier. But it's very encouraging nevertheless.

Oh, and on the topic of good news for Claire, Bill Clinton raised $1 million for her campaign. Given that Talent currently has $6.9 million on hand while Claire currently has $2.7 million, money is clearly Claire's Achilles' heel. Although I know we're all college students with limited cash, consider giving to her campaign if you have some spare change. The campaign could really use it.

And while still on the subject, here are some new ads from Claire's campaign. Enjoy!
