Rasmussen has tight races for Senate and governor

Posted By Max Brantley on Fri, Oct 17, 2014 at 12:29 PM

I mentioned earlier that the Rasmussen polling organization had found Tom Cotton leading Mark Pryor 47-44, with 5 percent undecided and a 3 percent margin of error in the race for U.S. Senate. A so-called statistical dead heat.

Similar in the governor's race from Rasmussen. 49-47 Hutchinson over Mike Ross, with 3 percent undecided and a 3 percent margin of error.

Say again: Turnout.

Everything that Donald Trump does — make that everything that he says — is calculated to thrill his lustiest disciples. But he is discovering that what was brilliant for a politician is a miscalculation for a president, because it deepens the chasm between him and most Americans.
On Charlottesville

Watching the Charlottesville spectacle from halfway across the country, I confess that my first instinct was to raillery. Vanilla ISIS, somebody called this mob of would-be Nazis.
