Brown is toast. We're going to send him the way of Kilroy.

That's the closest that I've seen yet for Mandel. Would like to see it happen, however, I don't think that a lot of people are familiar with him and most are not terribly displeased with Brown. Unless a small landslide is on the way, I see Brown keeping the seat.

I'm a Republican living in Ohio and I don't even know much about Mandel other than he has an "R" by his name.

So Rasmussen has it even within the margin of error. No surprise there, but I'm sure hoping its not the Ham Rove saturation of our television stations in Ohio with false negative adverts.

I don't know if I believe this one. Mandel is not well known like a George Allen or the ones in Missouri. Brown is probably going to win Ohio even if Obama doesn't.
