Rasmussen‘s latest poll on the West Virginia race has Republican John Raese at 50%. This comes after the Manchin endorsements from normally GOP-friendly groups like the national Chamber of Commerce and the NRA.
Meanwhile, the NRSC has a new ad on the race (via Battle ’10) that subtlely hits on a theme I think is still vastly underestimated: Joe Manchin is so good as Governor that he needs to stay there instead of going to Washington.
