Tossup/Tilt R at this point.

Still Tilt D, IMO. Coakley is only winning 66% of Democrats in this poll, and there's a good chance that the rest will come home for her on election day. I'd want to see Baker's numbers closer to 50 before I'd call the race for him.

Maybe, if it wasn't Massachusetts.

They're not exactly strangers to electing Republican governors.

I have faith that Martha the Magnificent will consolidate Democrats and pull it out on election day. Baker certainly isn't going to win 1/3 of Democrats.

Outstanding news, and it was a particularly good sign seeing how well Baker did in this poll with urban voters.
