According to this article, it looks like it:
One poll, conducted by the Wall Street Journal and Zogby, shows Webb now ahead by a point or two. He’s proving to be a formidable campaigner and there’s no evidence that Allen can turn things around. The DSCC is now committing financial support, and the state’s party leadership is fully revving its machinery.
How come we haven’t seen this anywhere else?
As well they should!!! I know that Barbara Boxer’s PAC will be sending Webb some $.
This is different, though. This is the DSCC, not the various senator’s PACs. If this is true, then that is a horse of a different color.
Well, you do ask a good question… how come this fun little fact isn’t being picked up anywhere else beside this Falls Church rag?
A few other sites confirming this . . .
