Public Policy Polling produced a poll for the Daily Kos showing that five of the eight Wisconsin State Senate Republicans would actually beat unidentified Democrat candidates in a Recall matchup. Three of these five would get more than fifty percent of the vote (52, 56, 60), and two don't make it to the fifty mark (netting 45 and 48 percent of the vote). In four districts, more people disapprove of the Recall in the first place than those who are in favor of it. But here is how some news sites headlined the story:

• The Daily Kos: Wisconsin recall: 3 GOP state senators trail Generic Dem, more at risk.
• Political Wire: Five Wisconsin Republicans Vulnerable to Recall.
• Talking Points Memo: Three WI Republicans Trail In Recall Election Against Generic Dems.
