McCaskill Maintains Edge in Missouri

A final Public Policy Polling poll in Missouri finds Sen. Claire McCaskill (D) holding on to a narrow lead over Rep. Todd Akin (R) for U.S. Senate, 48% to 44%.

Key findings: "Akin's image isn't getting any better. He now has a 29% favorability rating with 56% of voters rating him unfavorably, the worst numbers we've found for him to date. Nevertheless Republicans are starting to unify around him a little bit more as the election approaches: he's gone from getting 74% of his party vote on our last poll to now 79%."

there is enough confusion and uncertainty that Romney has achieved an important milestone: he enters the final days cast in the media as tied or just a little bit behind, not a long shot.

That is an "important milestone"? With unemployment as high as it is, and a weak economy, that is not a "milestone". It is a reflection of a pathetic candidate representing a crazy party that made it impossible to nominate a candidate who would actually be effective.
