Sen. Claire McCaskill now leads Todd Akin in Missouri's Senate race according to a new poll by Rasmussen, a Republican-leaning firm. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports a ten point lead by Missouri's Senior Senator. The Rasmussen poll is the first since the controversy over Akin's comments on rape became widely known earlier this week.
The Post article stresses that it is still early in the race. Naturally, Republicans are hoping the issue will die down before McCaskill develops any commanding and irreversible lead. For now, though, what a difference a week makes.
