National Review online writer John J. Miller has changed the rating of the Minnesota Senate race to "toss-up" status.
In March, he had it rated "Likely Republican Takeover."
Meanwhile, Rasmussen Reports has new Minnesota numbers out. Unfortunately, Minnesota is behind the "premium content" firewall at Rasmussen. But Kennedy vs. the Machine reports it's 47% Klobuchar and 44% Kennedy; within the margin-of-error.
Maybe it's me, I haven't "spreadsheeted" the polls in this race, but the numbers don't seem to be moving in this or other polls. Rasmussen in January had it 43-42 Klobuchar. In February, it was 45-42 Klobuchar. In April -- or maybe it was May -- it was 45-43 Klobuchar.
Rasmussen has a very high margin of error -- 4.5% -- so who knows. Still, it sounds like a lot of people have made up their mind in this contest, and a healthy number don't seem all that interested yet.
Maybe the State Fair will determine the winner.
