The latest Rasmussen poll shows Rick Santorum slightly narrowing the gap against Democrat challenger Bobby Casey. He still trails by 15 points, 53% to 38%, but that is an improvement over the last Rasmussen poll in November in which he trailed by 20 points.
That's the good news for Santorum, here's the bad:
Casey's support is holding rock solid at 53%-54%. Santorum had hoped that as voters saw more of Casey they would be disillusioned with him, and there was widespread speculation that Casey's strong anti-abortion stance [he wants to overturn Roe v. Wade] would hurt him among Democrats. But that hasn't happened. Even strong pro-abortion Democrats plan to vote for Casey, so great is their hatred for Santorum.
