Polling on Santorum-Casey race - anybody got new figures?
Was wondering how that was going - read a comment over at Crooks and Liars that said Santorum has pulled to within single digits and could pull it off to win this election. If that is true, that is a huge turn around for Man-on-Dog - surely this can't be correct.

Does anyone have a site that shows polling info for the Congressional races?

1. I had no idea but here it is:
Poll: Santorum continues to close

HARRISBURG -- Buoyed by a summer advertising blitz, U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum R-Pa. has narrowed Bob Casey's lead in the battle for public opinion, closing to within a handful of points of the Democratic state treasurer, a new Morning Call/Muhlenberg College poll has found.

6. I live in W. PA and Santorum is flooding the TV with ads. Casey has a few,
innocuous ads while Santorum's appear to be more impressive in getting attention.

4. No. Slimetorum is rolling out some slick ads. Shows him sponsoring a
new plant to make alternative fuels so we don't have to depend on terrorists. "Them" he calls them after showing images of demonstrations in ME where they are burning US flags, blowing things up, etc. He has another one where he says his grandfather was a coal miner who emigrated here and that there are others "who have more sinister reasons for coming here" and that he is for border security. Another shows him with seniors touting the dumb ass medicare prescription drug plan.
