Was away for the weekend and looked over the past 6 pages and don't think this was posted, so in case it wasn't, here it is.

This is an increase of 2 points for McCaskill from the previous poll (+6).

1. Thank God

I had gotten an e-mail from Kirsten Gillibrand's campaign earlier this week asking for donations to McCaskil campaign because she was down in some polls.

Glad to see she is ahead in this one.

Hope she kicks his ass!

3. Thank GOd

I'm in Kansas City, Kansas, and I had to drive through the Missouri countryside. Lots of Akins sides. Got me worried a little.

5. I'll take even Razzy at this point

I still can't believe Akin is polling that well in the Show Me state after he showed them exactly who and what he is.

6. I agree. They must be really right-wing and REALLY hate McCaskill! NT.

7. Not surprising actually

Look at how much support Romney is getting nationally after he even insulted half the country!
