Bright Over 50 Against NRCC Young Gun
A new poll conducted for Rep. Bobby Bright's (D-AL) campaign shows that while he may sit in a very vulnerable CD, he starts out in strong shape for re-election.
The survey, conducted by Anzalone-Liszt (D), shows Bright leading Montgomery Councilor Martha Roby (R), AL school board member Stephanie Bell (R) and businessman Rick Barber (R) handily. The survey was conducted 2/8-11, among 500 LVs; It has a margin of error of +/- 4.4%. The survey was first posted in the Montgomery Advertiser.

Barber 26
Roby was introduced last week as one of just 10 candidates nationwide to reach the top of the NRCC's "Young Guns" program, proving just how much GOPers think of her chances in this GOP-heavy CD (John McCain took 61% here in '08).
But since winning the seat in '08, Bright has proved a tough target for GOPers. He's a frequent critic of Dem policies, and has voted against all of the major pieces of the Dem legislative agenda (cap-and-trade, health care and the stimulus). Still, GOPers believe he's vulnerable for one vote he did make for the leadership: his vote for Nancy Pelosi for speaker.
This race will certainly close as we draw closer to the election, but if Bright's survey is correct, he starts off with a strong early lead.
I think Bright's opponents are going to be especially surprised by the favorability numbers in the poll. Tough to unseat that a solid majority think is doing a good job.
