     Up by 9 in his own internal? That still translates to something of a lead, though I would have figured Kitzhaber for a slam dunk victory. Maybe he is deflating his numbers to get money from the DGA.

The Rass polls have shown this as a very close race so far. I do have a feeling that Kitzhaber will pull ahead in the end.

     I forgot about the Rasmussen polls. I'll admit that this race has not really been on my radar, due in large part to it being Oregon, which has been trending towards the Democrats for quite some time now.

Oregon also hasn't elected a Republican governor since 1982, so they may be feeling the itch (spurred on by the terrible national climate). This is probably one that the Dems can pull a win out of, though, if Kitzhaber gets his act together.
