Analysis:

Rob Portman finally reaches the magic number of 50% in a race that should have been a no contest for months.  Team Portman is making the right arguments so I think it is coming down to who the voters believe more and so far it looks like Portman is winning that particular race.  Fisher has run an absolutely awful race and Portman still looks to going for the tiara in this beauty contest.
