I don't want to take too much from a single poll result - especially since I've been all over the internet for years saying they don't mean much this far away from Election Day - but if it holds up, it is very good news.
Burns was a surprise vulnerability as he was caught up in ties with Jack Abramoff. But remember, this Democratic primary was the Kos Kids' first win ever, and Tester is a certifiable moonbat cadet. So long as Burns isn't charged with any crime or photographed drowning puppies, he should beat Tester easily.

Aside from Rehberg, Baucus is just as much a liberal nut as Tester, as is the kook Governor, Schweitzer (who wouldn't have won had the previous GOP Governor hadn't been so gaffe-prone). I'm not terribly enamored of Burns and hoped he would've stepped down in favor of a younger and similarly less gaffe-prone Republican, but his win is of paramount importance this year.
