I think you'll probably find more undecideds in the 451 registered voters who said they weren't likely to vote. They might be more inspired as the election goes on.
Mark, I think the point Shaun is trying to make is that many of the Democrats have been very quick to jump on the poll bandwagon, and now that the numbers are very much against them, they have gone silent.
Seriously, it is time for "horse-race politics" to be put to rest. The only poll that matters is that taken at the election sites on Election Day. These polls may be interesting to look at, but the only people who can really glean any real information out of them are political scientists; the general public usually does not know of the intricacies of polling.
What's the money race looking like? $7.5 million for Allen to Webb's $220k plus $100k in debt? Money isn't everything, but it certainly makes one hell of an impact.
