FL Governor: It's a Horserace Again

Poll says Davis has caught up with Crist:

A shift in the mind-set of independent voters has made Florida's governor's race a ''dead heat,'' according to a new poll by Quinnipiac University.

The poll, released today, shows Democrat Jim Davis narrowing the gap with Republican Charlie Crist to two points -- 46 percent to 44 -- well within the poll's 3.4 percent margin of error.

Actually, what happened is that Davis started his TV campaign; previously Christ had the airwaves to himself. (Money still counts.)

Nevertheless, I admit that just as I was surprised at the size of Crist's lead, I'm also surprised that Davis caught up so fast.
