WA-Sen: DSCC poll shows lead for Murray by Joan McCarter Tue Sep 07, 2010 at 02:52:04 PM PDT A new poll for the DSCC by the Democratic firm Fairbank, Maslin, Maullin, Metz and Associates shows incumbent Dem Senator Patty Murray with a five point lead over Republican Dino Rossi, 50-45. The significant factors: The Survey also found the three-term Senator with impressive job approval and favorable numbers: 53 percent of those surveyed approved of the job she is doing in the Senate, while 55 percent held a favorable opinion of her. That's higher than the 47 percent that see Rossi in a favorable light. Rossi is well known and not well liked in the state. That's not going to change so there isn't going to be much opportunity for the undecideds to be swayed his way. Moderates don't like him, and he still hasn't consolidated Republicans, with tea party candiate Clint Didier still refusing to endorse unless Rossi goes hard right. It's going to be all about turnout in this one, and Murray is going to have to keep reminding the Democratic base that there's a reason to turn out to beat Dino Rossi a third time dailykos.com
