Senate Race

Survey USA has its latest net approval numbers out for the US Senate.

Nelson has dropped dramatically from his earlier ratings, but still holds on to a sizable net approval of +27%. However, his disapproval rating (33%, up 9% from June) is at a historic high and his approval (60%, down 12% from June) is at a historic low, so it might appear as though the Ricketts ad campaign is beginning to dent the fromer governor's teflon a bit.

However, I doubt the Republican campaign can make much more headway without something dramatic happening. Maybe they can scrape up some people he hasn't seen in 30-40 years and have them claim he is a racist.
