The new Quinnipiac Pollhas Marco Rubio, the conservative Republican who’s ridden a wave of good press in his Senate campaign against Gov. Charlie Crist (R-Fla.), surging into the lead. Powered by a big lead with self-identified “conservatives,” Rubio leads Crist by three points. The trendlines, since October:
Marco Rubio – 47 percent (+12)
Charlie Crist – 44 percent (-6)
Just as positive for Rubio — in a trial heat with likely Democratic nominee Kendrick Meek, he has moved from a statistical tie to a nine-point lead.
If there’s any doubt that this is a referendum on conservative values more than candidates, Crist’s favorable rating among Republicans is actually higher than Rubio’s: Crist has a 64-27 rating, while Rubio has a 53-4 rating.
