Rasmussen has Kirk Ahead in U.S. Senate Match-ups

We'll talk about this more later, as I'm in the middle of the workday, but Scott Rasmussen has Kirk leading both Alexi Giannoulias (41-38) and Cheryle Jackson (47-30) in the race for U.S. Senate. A few other interesting factoids are Alexi's higher total unfavorables compared to Kirk's (33-28), and Kirk's higher total favorables compared to Alexi (55-51). Full analysis here.

Also note some interesting questions on the guv race, especially the fairly high "not sure" reponses on opinions about the GOP candidates, which means they have a lot of name recognition to build as the race gets underway (Rasmussen polled on Dillard, Brady, Murphy, Schillerstrom and Proft, but not Adam Andrzejewski).

We all know how accurate Rasmussen was during the 08 campaign...they had Clinton as the ringer for the Dems.....
