Yesterday morning, the most recent polling showed Brownback down one point to Davis. Not a great position for an incumbent to be in at this stage of the campaign but hardly a lost cause. I'm cautiously optimist that both Brownback and Roberts will rally in the last month of the campaign - I don't think the situations are quite as bleak as the MSM wants to portray.
I missed that poll. Where did you see it?
Like you, I think both Brownback and Roberts will pull it out. Personally, I want to publically thank Gov. Brownback for cutting my state taxes at a time when I was struggling greatly with finances.
Not the most recent. A SurveyUSA poll that came out after that had Davis up by 5. Link
I figure you have to go with the trend. And the trend has been a pretty consistent 4 or 5 points down for Brownback. That may change over the coming weeks as we get closer to election day; we'll have to see.
The NBC Marist Poll did have it at one point difference. Davis 44 and Brownback 43

The same Marist Poll that found Roberts down ten points.
