Sorry, but Rasmussen is a top pollster, whether you like it or not.
I think Rasmussen is better when you get closer to the General Election (sometime after Labor Day) but prior to then its questionable. Also Rasmussen has put up some very weird numbers right after the Primary this year. Regardless, the numbers in this race have been bouncing all over the place. Until we several polls in a row showing a similar result I don't think we can read too much into it.

Yeah so much for "Rasmussen poll shows Charlie Crist leading Marco Rubio in Florida Senate race"
You are not going to convince the libs even when the election is over and Rubio wins. They will find something to explain the polls are not right or it is still too soon.

How about lets wait for a few polls to agree with this one, or go with the average method of all polls, instead of sticking to the one that shows the best results for the GOP....
We should at least wait to see if other polls are backing this up and get away from the Post Primary bounce in which Rasmussen has thrown up some odd figures (McMahon within 3, Paul up 25, Boozman up 38, etc) before we start suggesting Rubio has it in the bag

Ras might have been on to something with the CT race, which is tightening and definitely the AR race, which has Boozman up by 30+ points.
The closest non Rasmussen poll in Connecticut has been 10. In the case of Arkansas, no question Boozman is winning and winning big, but Rasmussen has by far the largest lead. Most polls range from the high teens to mid 20's.
In the case of Florida, in between those three polls is a poll which shows Crist up by 7. Out of the last five polls, two show Crist up, three show Rubio up

Looks like Rubio is surging. Meeks winning should help Rubio.
Avg - Rubio, 2.4%
Again, no one is even close to that Rasmussen poll in Arkansas. Boozman is up big, and will win, no question about that, but that 38 point lead is no where even remotely close to anyone else.
Average for Rubio is 2.4%, and he might be surging, however key word is might. All I'm saying is lets give it a couple more polls. He hasn't been ahead in enough polls yet to really say he is pulling away or taken a real lead. Perhaps he is, but with the last 5 polls only a 3-2 advantage, its just too early to tell.
