I’ve read that Pest Dispatch article several times...
Pest Dispatch...I like that. It must be like the Houston Comical (Houston Chronicle)...totally biased.

...and nowhere in it does it say what percentage of voters actually support McCasket.

Perhaps you're expected to take the results of this question to be representative or indicative of that...
QUESTION: If the 2012 general election for Missouri’s U.S. Senate seat were held today, would you vote for Claire McCaskill, the Democrat, or Todd Akin, the Republican?
.................McCASKILL....AKIN
Democrat ...........89 .............5
Republican .........14 ............79
Independent .......52 ............35

...625 registered Missouri voters interviewed statewide by phone. All stated they were likely to vote in the November general election.

You know how it is.

Yeah, I guess that's asking a bit too much.
