Allen opens up 8pt lead over Kaine

Roanoke College Poll: Salem, Va. – Republican George Allen has opened an eight-point lead (45%-37%) on Democrat Tim Kaine in a likely November matchup for the U.S. Senate seat from Virginia according to The Roanoke College Poll.

As Shaun says at Bearing Drift, Governor Abuser Fees can’t be happy about this.

Shaun writes: Allen can boast a five point lead among independent voters too… and among women, Kaine is actually tied — illustrating how Kaine’s three week pogrom on personhood radically hurt the former DNC chairman’s messaging among independents and women.

Over at Virginia Virtucon Riley says, While Allen is talking about the economy, jobs and energy independence, Kaine is running on “macaca,” social issues, George W. Bush, Ken Cuccinelli and being President Obama’s “unabashed” defender. Coincidence? I think not.
