Geez, we just had an election! What impact will President Obama have on the 2010 race when he travels to Missouri to campaign for Robin Carnahan, an early supporter of his?

From Public Policy Polling:

Kit Bond is more popular than Voinovich and Martinez but our polling finds him somewhat vulnerable as well if the right person runs against him in 2010.

In July we found Bond’s approval rating at 39%. In August we found it at 44%.

In hypothetical matchups we found Bond leading Secretary of State Robin Carnahan 44-42, Auditor Susan Montee 47-35, Congressman Russ Carnahan 46-43, and former Congressman Dick Gephardt 44-43.
