Rassmussen reports that, in the current generic Congressional horserace, the Republican would beat the Democrat 41%-38%. Even better, 31% of conservative Dems say they’re willing to bolt their pasture. That’s brilliant timing on the part of Arlen Specter (D-PA) to announce he’s returning home.
Of course, there’s a couple catches. First, this is just the second time in the 5-year history of the daily/weekly horserace that the Republicans have had a lead. Second, the 41% represents an R high while the 38% represents a D low.
