New Senate polling shows Dems retake Senate

Hotline and Taegan Goddard both point to recent polling for the Senate races showing (as hotline calls it) "Dems ahead everywhere." Politicalwire also points out that Montana, Tennessee, and Ohio now show Dem winners.

(Most of these polls are within MOE, and state polling is usually small sample, but you'd always rather be ahead than behind.)

Also: These polls serve to reinforce the Conventional Wisdom shift that has been taking place over the last week. After the Republican "non-political" 9/11 push, many pundits were shifting Republican, but in the last week, NIE, Woodward, and Foley, have all firmly pushed all the momentum back to the Dems.

  • I didn't see this before I took a look at Rasmussen & Mason Dixon and did my own update tonight, but yeah, across the board its looking like that. The one to watch is Virginia, imo. I can't believe Allen is still polling at +6.

  • Depends on which poll and when. That race is wobbling all over the place. Overall, I'd guess Allen plus a couple, but it seems to be fluctuating daily.
