Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.

I'd want to see crosstabs on this, and Suffolk isn't a particularly great pollster (certainly not Zogby-tier bad either), but it's not patently absurd on its face so put together with all the other polling coming out of this race recently (not that it's exactly been thick on the ground) I think this stands as pretty much a tie at this point. It should be noted that Warren has so far been much better at grassroots stuff than Brown and has proven herself to be an amazing fundraiser, whereas Brown is (and I hate to admit this) culturally a better fit for a lot of the outer Boston suburbs and other such places, which are important to winning statewide elections here even though they pretty much always swing Democratic at the Presidential level. But people don't like the Republicans at this point, even more so than they usually don't like the Republicans, and Brown's cultivation of a moderate reputation is losing some of its sheen, so I'm still inclined to say that this is an outlier. ~3-5 points I could see. Almost double-digits I cannot.

This is good news. I was getting concerned about this race.

You should still be concerned about it. Brown still isn't to be favored.
