a Libertarian is trying to get on the ballot -- I assume that would marginally help the Dems

Oh my God look at his forehead.

Jim needs someone else to talk for him and he never actually talks on camera.

Whoa, Murphy's ad has like 3 times more views.

OH NO IT'S OVER


Tongue

It's the Internets, dude. Every Democratic politico in the country is following the race and we know how the dominate here.

I really wasn't inferring anything. Tongue

By the way, how are the GOP turnout efforts going in the district?

Of course he thought there was a Republican advantage - there is.  Republicans have a large registration advantage.




Also, Tedisco has some nice gravitas, compared to Murphy who is a political rookie.

Remember when somebody came on here and said that Tedisco was going to win with about 67% of the vote? Too funny.

I expect him to win with 55% tops now.  He might even lose.

So is it pretty much a pure tossup now?

toss-up/slightly lean DEM, I'd say.

Eh, I wouldn't say so.  Don't forget that these kind of polls have a higher margin of error than normal (Murphy is not even at 50%) and turnout will be in favor of the GOP.

It's kind of premature to say that it's slight lean in any direction.  But yeah, Michael Steele is screwed if Tedisco loses.

Before I went on the computer, I was thinking to myself how close this race could possibly be.

To be honest, I'm beginning to become indifferent about the results of this race, since there is a very small chance one vote will make the difference in any major vote in these next few years.

The senate is a different story.

This thing is going to go on forever if it remains this close.

Minnesota 2.0

It's more like Minnesota 1.5 because it's a house race, not a senate race.
