Rasmussen (R)eports - (D)Pryor up 1 in Arkansas
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2014/senate/ar/arkansas_senate_cotton_vs_pryor-4049.html#polls
What we're seeing here is the first likely voter poll since April to show Democratic incumbent Pryor with a lead. Could this be a bit of a "Ferguson effect" - some people who usually don't vote having their political apathy cured by the injustice they see?
Pryor's opponent, Cotton, could easily step in overnight and become the worst Senator. On the issues, he's basically the worst of both worlds - on one hand, a crusader for social injustice who can't find one economic policy which favors the 1% that he doesn't like, or one policy which helps the lower/middle class which he does like. And on the other hand, an outspoken neocon who can't find a war or surveillance program he doesn't like. He's like what you would get if an evil scientist decided to merge the worst of Dick Cheney and Rand Paul. And the GOP of course loves him and views him as a rising young star, which makes him all the more important to stop.
