Baldwin Leads the Nowhere-to-be-found Thompson.

With her sane serious and ad campaign message, helped by a blustery opponent who all but thought he could lay low and win, Tammy Baldwin has taken the lead away from Tommy Thompson.
Tammy makes safe landing in surprise vehicle!
The Hill: Rep. Tammy Baldwin (D-Wis.) has completely wiped away Tommy Thompson’s lead in the Wisconsin Senate race, according to two polls released Wednesday. A Marquette University Law School poll shows a 20-point swing from last month, with Baldwin leading by 9 percentage points, 50 to 41. Those numbers were reversed in the same poll last month.

A New York Times/CBS/Quinnipiac University poll also showed Thompson’s lead had been erased, but found both candidates tied in the race at 47 percent, with 6 percent undecided. Much of the shift in the Marquette poll came from independents. Baldwin captured 50 percent of independents compared to 37 percent last month. Thompson’s numbers with the group lowered from 47 percent last month to 38 percent. 
According to the DPW, Tommy is "broke;"
Thompson, a multimillionaire Washington, D.C. insider, told WISN, “I think the fact that we're broke and they've got $4 million is a pretty good position to be in. I feel pretty good where I'm at."
But don't worry, Karl Rove is pledging $1.4 million in attack ads to help Thompson out. As for Obama:
TPM: The Marquette University Law School poll released Wednesday shows Obama leading Romney among likely Wisconsin voters, 54 percent to 40 percent.
If that result is to incredible to believe, try this one:
Wispolitics: According to the new Quinnipiac University/CBS News/New York Times survey. It also had the U.S. Senate race dead even. The poll found Obama led his Republican opponent 51 percent to 45 percent among likely voters.
