The short and sweet of it.
Hogan is running a campaign focusing on where Brown is weak, the economy and taxes. He hasn't said much about guns, abortion, gays, or any other traditional Republican social issues.
Will it work? Election is less than 60 days away.
Hogan and Brown are within the margin of error of each other on the polls. So the election is no longer a simple formality for Brown.
One thing that is interesting, even the Baltimore Sun, the bastion of liberalism, has had articles and opinions in it talking about how Brown is being forced to attack a fictional version of Hogan (calling him out for issues like guns and abortion) despite Hogan has made no statements on the issues.
What poll has it in the margin of error outside the poll conducted by the MD Republican party?

A 14+ point lead by Brown is not within the margin of error, it's a runaway.
The Hogan campaign is optimistic. They know they will lose the usual 101% Democratic areas.
The key is turnout. If all the Republicans show up in a place like Anne Arundel County, Hogan will be in.
The key is turnout. The wife is making phone calls this morning to help that effort.

Again, for the record, the only poll suggesting competiveness is a GOP poll.
