FL-Sen: Blowout

This is one we thought we were going to have to worry about a lot more than it looks like we do today. No wonder the GOP is trying so hard to replace Katherine Harris. The rout is on:

"If the election for United States Senator were being held today, and the candidates were Bill Nelson the Democrat and Katherine Harris the Republican for whom would you vote? (MoE +/- 2.8%)

Bill Nelson: 57% (50)
Katherine Harris: 33% (38)
No Answer/Don't Know: 9%
Wouldn't Vote: 1%

"Is your opinion of Bill Nelson favorable, unfavorable, mixed, or haven't you heard enough about him?"

Favorable: 35%
Unfavorable: 8%
Mixed: 24%
Haven't Heard Enough: 31%

Many fun internal numbers in the poll as well. Among those that know Nelson well enough to form an opinion, he is thought of as an honest leader who actually works for Floridians.
