From Zogby:

George Allen of Virginia, a Republican once thought to be both a good bet for reelection and a possible presidential contender, continues to struggle. The Allen campaign has suffered from a series of missteps late in the summer, but he holds a three-point margin over Democrat Jim Webb, the former Reagan-era Navy Secretary who is challenging for his job. However, momentum is on the side of the challenger in this round, with Allen losing ground from the previous round of polling.

  4. I don’t trust either the interactive or the live polls. The most accurate ones seem to be the recorded phone calls. People don’t seem to lie as much to a machine as they do with a live person. I think that’s what makes Rasmussen and USAsurvey the most accurate. Having said all that, all the polls now seem to show about the same thing, Allen getting very close to 50% and Webb 3% or 4% lower.
