There's no other way to put it.
Quinnipiac. 3/26-3/31. Registered voters. MoE 2.9%. (3/3-8 numbers)
Rob Simmons (R) 50 (43)
Chris Dodd (D) 34 (42)
Tom Foley (R) 43
Chris Dodd (D) 35
Sam Caligiuri (R) 41 (34)
Chris Dodd (D) 37 (47)
What can you say? These numbers suck.
Even assuming this is a crazy outlier, Dodd is in huge trouble, and has been for months.
If this polling is in the least accurate - and Quinnipiac's last poll, along with Research 2000's March poll for Daily Kos, differ substantially - Dodd is dead in the water.
Dodd's favorables in this poll are an abominable 30/58 favorable/unfavorable, meaning that Robert Mugabe would stand a good chance at beating him.
Nobody even knows who Foley or Caligiuri are. They're both "generic R's", and they're hammering Dodd.
We can only hope this is an outlier. Because if these polling numbers are legitimate, we need a new candidate.
