Dribs and drabs

The you've-got-to-pay-for-it-now Rasmussen poll this month on the Senate race and governor's race is coming out in dribs and drabs.

On the governor's race, it looks like someone over at the DFL dusted off the credit card, because they have issued a release that claims to have the Rasmussen numbers. (I'm not on the DFL mailing list so thanks to Tom Scheck for passing this along).

From the poll:

Hatch over Pawlenty 49% to 39%

Lourey over Pawlenty 43% to 40%

Kelley over Pawlenty 43% to 38%

"Some other candidate" registers between 6 and 8%.

The DFL doesn't mention the Senate race. For good reason.

Over at Kennedy vs. the Machine, they're quoting something called G2 (no idea, I don't know the secret handshake), saying Klobuchar is at 45% with Kennedy at 43%. I presume that's within the margin of error.

By the way, back to the governor's race for a moment. Think Becky Lourey's "no" votes vs. Steve Kelley's "yes" votes in today's stadium votes in the Senate further define their campaigns? I sure do.
