Sen. John Thune (R-S.D.) looks very safe as he heads into his re-election campaign next year, according to a new Research2000/DailyKos poll.

The poll, released Thursday, found that 57 percent of respondents view Thune favorably. Thune also polled well against two possible challengers: Former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle (D), who Thune beat to take the seat in 2004, and Rep. Stephanie Herseth Sandlin (D).

Thune beat Daschle 53 percent to 40 percent and bested Herseth Sandlin by a 51 percent to 39 percent margin.
