7. Conventional wisdom when a candidate is polling "majority"
Edited on Mon Oct-30-06 10:46 PM by longship
When a candidate is polling at 50% or more, the general thinking is that the candidate pretty much has a lock on the race. With Webb in the majority, it's going to be extraordinarily difficult to dislodge him from the lead.

So, there are now two polls with Webb at 50% or over. That means Macaca is in big trouble. Watch things tip-over for Webb the next week. Any undecideds are going to only increase Webb's lead.

Gallup
Webb 50/Macaca 46

Rasmussen
Webb 51/Macaca 46

We're going to take VA Senate folks.
