Bad Poll For Stabenow (Jeremy P. Jacobs, January 7, 2011, Hotline)

The Detroit News/WDIV-TV poll found that only 37 percent approve of Stabenow's job performance and less than a quarter -- 23 percent -- would vote to re-elect her. A generic opponent pulled 43 percent against her.

Numbers like that could make Michigan a top pick up opportunity for Republicans in 2012. Already, some Republicans are seeing opportunities in other blueish states -- such as former Rep. Heather Wilson, who is (R) considering a bid agaisnt Sen. Jeff Bingaman (D) in New Mexico. Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown is also considered very vulnerable after Republicans made significant gains in Ohio in 2010.
