I didn't find an Eagleton poll showing Forrester up by six points, but I did find a new Eagleton poll. Perhaps there will soon be an accompanying article detailing general voter choices between the two candidates.

This poll does show some good news for Forrester:
-Republicans and independents are both more engaged and excited than Democrats.
-The generic voter preference favors Torch slightly in general, but Forrester among those most likely to vote. This was a good gauge in recent NJ elections for final outcomes.
-Torch's best argument, IMHO, was the "don't give the GOP the Senate" approach." This poll shows that issue is a dead heat. No advantage either way. Not good for Bobby T.

GOP gains two, four if we can pick off Cleland and keep the Libertarians from spoiling Thune in South Dakota.

That's a 53-46-1 margin. What irks me is that it would have easily been a 55-44-1 margin had it not been for the third-party types who hypocritically spout a stand for "principle" while they elect someone who opposes them on EVERY principle.
