Today’s polls bear bad news for Feingold, Conway, Sestak, Manchin, Giannoulias

A just-released Rasmussen poll of Wisconsin shows GOP challenger Ron Johnson well above 50 percent against Sen. Russ Feingold, D.

PPP and Fox-Rasmussen both show pretty strong backlash against Jack Conway’s Aquabuddha ad in Kentucky.

Morning Call tracking suggests that Toomsday is quickly approaching in Pennsylvania.

Alexi Giannoulias shows no sign yet of a late surge in Illinois.

This one’s more controversial, because the polls have shown some serious divergence. But reports of Joe Manchin’s resurrection may be premature.

Within an hour, Scott Rasmussen is scheduled to release his poll of Nevada.
