Which, again, ought to remind everyone that the ginned-up polls by the MSM are worthless and are merely agenda driven.

I sure hope these numbers hold up. He's ahead about 3-1 in most of these districts.

Ronnie Earle, eat your heart out.

59% is rather weak for an incumbent, but in any case it's now 64% at the moment (still weak, but better). Of course, it may not signify much in any case. Specter had about as weak a winning margin as it gets over Toomey, but still cruised in the general.

You might want to wait on your happy dance. Only 10% of the vote is in.
