Yesterday, a poll suggested that although Florida Senate candidate Marco Rubio is surging in his GOP primary race against Charlie Crist, he would have trouble in the general election against presumptive Democratic nominee Kendrick Meek. Now, Rasmussen provides further evidence of Rubio’s growing strength and suggests that he’d trounce Meek:

Both men seeking the Republican nomination to become Florida’s next U.S. senator lead their likely Democratic opponent by double digits.
A new Rasmussen Reports survey of Florida voters shows Governor Charlie Crist leading Representative Kendrick Meek by a 46% to 34% margin. In August, Crist led by 19 and in June he was ahead by 21.
Former Florida House Speaker Marco Rubio leads Meek by a similar margin, 46% to 31%. In August, Rubio led by 13 percentage points.
Crist currently holds a 49% to 35% lead over Rubio among likely Republican Primary voters.
