A new Rasmussen poll in Missouri finds that the 2010 Senate race is a real toss-up, with GOP Rep. Roy Blunt and Democratic Secretary of State Robin Carnahan tied at 46% each.
Four-term Republican Sen. Kit Bond is retiring, opening up this perennial swing state for a top-tier Senate race in 2010. John McCain carried the state by about 0.1% in 2008, and the Democrats won the state's other Senate seat by a three-point margin back in 2006.

This is good news. It's a Rasmussen poll. If Rasmussen had Tweety Bird running as the Republican, Tweety Bird would have the lead. Discount at least five points for weighting error in the sample in favor of the Republicans.
