Well, until other polls show something like this, I'll assume it's an outlier. Looking at all of the polls since last year, this appears to be only the second or third time Sestak has been in the lead. That suggests Toomey is still favor to win by 4-5 points.
As for the buzz on twitter about a tightening race, I think that was more about Democrats trying to create buzz and the idea they were surging in the polls. I didn't buy it then and I'm reluctant to buy it now. Given how strongly the generic number favors the Republicans, given how bad the terrain is for Democrats, I would be surprised if Sestak won. That doesn't mean he can't though.
PPP is a partisan poller who has shown a lot of bad results for Democrats this Fall. It does seem they started to be a bit more partisan with their results a few weeks ago.
