Klobuchar 45%
Kennedy 42%

Bell 43%
Kennedy 40%

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Klobuchar has always been ahead. Bell's lead just shows how weak Kennedy is. I wonder if this also has to do a bit with the backlash over those blatant exploitation ads.

I like Bell, so I might cast a symbolic vote for him in the primary, just because the nomination's a forgone conclusion anyway. But the GOP's chances here keep slowly slipping away.

Klobuchar should win 52%-45%.  Democrats will turn out here strongly whereas the GOP will not, thus giving her a bigger margin of victory than Kerry's.  I would be extremely surprised if she wins by less than Kerry.  I think her maximum would be 55%, Kennedy's lowest about 41%-42%.
