I know, I'm breaking my promise on the diaries but I have been waiting all day for the latest PPP poll on the Wisconsin Senate race. Democrat Tammy Baldwin is beating Republican Tommy Thompson, 49-45. Here are the highlights:

Baldwin's image has improved a little bit in the last month with her favorability rating improving from 40% to 44%. Her unfavorable number has remained steady at 45%. But the bigger reason for the shift is that Thompson's image has taken a major hit. Last month he had a net +3 favorability rating with 46% of voters rating him positively to 43% with a negative opinion. He's dropped a net 11 points since that time and now just 42% see him positively to 50% with an unfavorable view.Image may be NSFW.Baldwin's turned a small deficit with independents last month (45-42) into a slight advantage with them this month (46-44). And she's more than doubled her share of the Republican vote from 4% to 10%.
By a 47/43 margin voters say they want Democrats to have control of the US Senate and the actual Baldwin/Thompson numbers are tracking that pretty closely.

I never crossed this race off after Thompson won the primary. His campaign is broke after spending their money defeating tea party backed candidates, Eric Hovde and Mark Neumann. He hasn't been able to make as many appearances as Baldwin and trying to go after Baldwin's sexual orientation hurt him as well. Lets keep up the momentum and help Baldwin win!
