I just looked at the PPP poll Roger Hedgecock referred to in his source...
See that PPP Poll he referred to here:
http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/main/2012/08/akin-44-mccaskill-43.html
It says at the very top, the date of the poll — AUGUST 20,2012.
Rasmussen had a latter poll (dated 8/23) that showed Akin down by 10.
see here: http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0812/80043.html
However the most recent poll commissioned by the FRC had Akin up by 3.
See here:
“It says at the very top, the date of the poll AUGUST 20,2012.”
That is what it says, will have to wait and see if this is correct.
Is it possible that there really was no movement after the flare-up??? that the PPP poll and the FRC poll were correct assessment of the likely voters, and that the Rasmussen was the freak poll???
