That'd be to Specter's advantage if the election were held today. Voters who are unsure tend to vote for the devil they know, rather than the one they don't know. From the results of the poll, I would guess that Specter is losing ground due to the economy, and health care. Not just Specter, but <i>all</i> the 2010 elections for the House and Senate will depend heavily on what happens in those two areas. Toomey needs to work hard at making himself known to the folks who would like him, and keeping himself unknown to the folks who would dislike him. Without a public office to keep himself in the news, that may be expensive to do. How has Toomey been supporting his family since he got replaced at the Club For Growth?
