Pollster Scott Rasmussen has taken the first poll on the 2010 Senate race in Indiana—a race that until the last couple of weeks no one thought would be seriously contested. Rasmussen shows Democratic incumbent Evan Bayh trailing Republican Congressman Mike Pence 47%-44% and leading former Congressman John Hostettler 44%-41% and state Senator Martin Stutzman 45%-33%.
He is barely leading a Democratic State Senator. Bayh has been a Senator since 1999 and his dad had the seat since 1963. So the idea that a couple of nearly unknown people are within the margin of error of him is pretty shocking.
He seems to be running scared as well because he quickly jumped in against reconciliation on the Obamacare bill. He should be because reconciliation is the same thing as a resignation letter from the Democrats.
