Rep. Kendrick Meek (D-Fla.), the likely Democratic nominee for Senate in Florida, trails both his potential GOP opponents by double digits, according to a new Rasmussen poll (Jan. 27, 1000 LV, MoE +/- 3%). Republicans Charlie Crist and Marco Rubio are battling for the GOP nomination -- Rasmussen will release a separate poll for that race later today.

In Florida, Obama's approval rating is down to 42%. It was 2 points higher in December. Meek, a Miami congressman, remains the least known statewide among the three possible general election candidates.
