The polls for around March 24 have finally been posted on the Survey U.S.A site. I put '50 state' tracking in quotes because they only poll 14 states now :(.
http://www.surveyusa.com/...
The polls are broken down into a lot of categories (though the error rates would likely be fairly high for each).
They have them broken down by gender, age, race, home ownership, marital status, job status, party affiliation, ideology, income and religion.
I don't post any of that here. (It would be too much clutter)
The prior month is in brackets. Numbers are approve/disapprove, in that order

27.Russ Feingold, Wisconsin, 51/42 (51/38)
28.Herb Kohl, Wisconsin, 50/42 (56/34)
11 Senators have increased approval (or decreased dissaproval) 15 Senators have decreased approval (or increased disapproval). Maria Cantwell is unchanged and Al Franken is inexusably not yet in the Senate.
The polls tend to fluctuate around a bit month by month.
The only Senators with greater than 10% shifts in total are:
1.Dianne Feinstein who increases from +2 to +14,
2.Barbara Boxer increases from -4 to +8
3.Tom Harkin decreases from +27 to +15
4.Kit Bond decreass from +26 to +14 (he likely received a bounce in his approval in February after saying he wouldn't run again. No doubt favorable stories of his accomplishments in the Senate got published following his announcenment).
5.Herb Kohl decreases from +22 to +8
Governors: (March 22)
1.Bob Riley, Alabama, 57/38 (64/32)
2.Arnold Schwarzenegger, California 26/72 (25/71)
3.Chet Culver, Iowa, 46/48 (46/47)
4.Kathleen Sebelius?????, Kansas, 55/41 (56/40)
5.Steve Beshear, Kentucky, 49/41 (48/46)
6.Deval Patrick, Massachusetts, 27/68 (28/68)
7.Tim Pawlenty, Minnesota, 51/46 (48/44)
8.Jay Nixon, Missouri, 60/30 (55/35)
9.Bill Richardson, New Mexico, 42/54 (41/53)
10.David Paterson, New York missing information!!! grrr, this would have
been most entertaining! (30/66)
11.Ted Kulongoski, Oregon, 37/50 (38/52)
12.Tim Kaine, Virignia, 56/37 (57/37)
13.Christine Gregoire, Washington, 36/57 (38/58)
14.Jim Doyle, Wisconsin, 32/63 (40/55)
I'm not sure why Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius is still listed here (I think she was approved by the Senate as HHS Secretary).
The only governors with major moves on the upside are Jay Nixon who goes from +20 to +30
and Steve Beshear who goes from +2 to +8 (which barely qualifies as a major move).
The governors with major moves on the downside are Bob Riley who declines from +32 to +19 (still very high) and Jim Doyle for whom the bottom has pretty much fallen out, going from 15 to 31.
Unfortunately there is no evidence as of a couple weeks ago based on this poll that Norm Coleman and the Republican Party's sleazy actions in Minnesota were having any impact on Tim Pawlenty's approval ratings, and possibly by extension the approval of the Republican Party in general in Minnesota. (Coleman going to court is not sleazy per se, but it has become clear that his suit is nothing more than a delaying tactic to prevent Al Franken from taking his duly elected role in the U.S Senate. This is, to me, an obvious abuse of legal process and I have to say I'm a little surprised the Minnesota courts haven't thrown out the case on that count (not that I'm a legal expert or anything)).
