Keller in trouble?

Alan Grayson, a Democratic lawyer running to unseat U.S. Rep. Ric Keller, R-Orlando, in the 8th congressional district, is touting a new poll by the Kitchens Group showing him up by 4 points, 44 percent to 40. The poll found 16 percent of voters undecided.

Grayson ran in 2004 but didn't survive the primary. This year, he dumped $1-million into the primary campaign and won.

The poll, conducted Sept. 3-6, shows Sen. John McCain and Sen. Barack Obama tied, 44 percent to 44 percent. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 points.
