Wow:

A new poll shows former Rep. Pat Toomey (R-Pa.) has closed a 20-point gap on Sen. Arlen Specter (D-Pa.) in a matter of just two and a half months, and that the two are virtually tied.

The Quinnipiac poll, released Wednesday, shows Specter leading Toomey 45-44 in a virtual tie. In early May, shortly after Specter's party switch, he led Toomey 53-33.

Nearly half - 49 percent - of voters say Specter doesn't deserve reelection, while 40 percent say he does. Independent voters have shifted to Toomey's side by a 46-42 margin.
