Analysis
(November 7) We think Pawlenty hangs on in a very tough year for Republicans.
(November 4) This race is a case of which polls do you believe? The Star-Tribune and the two university polls indicating a 6-10 point Hatch lead or Mason-Dixon, Rasmussen and SurveyUSA which all have this a one point race. We believe the one point polls. This race is very, very close.
