It is interesting- Kerry is relying on press in the local media rather than the national media...

Im glad they realize the big cable channels are not on their side- or watched by too many swing voters...

6. Kerry Leads in the New Harris Poll

Bush's Convention Bounce
Vanishes as Race Tightens

A WALL STREET JOURNAL ONLINE NEWS ROUNDUP
September 16, 2004

Sen. John Kerry and President Bush are now enjoying almost equal levels of support, according to the latest Harris Interactive poll.

Immediately after the Republican convention in New York, several polls showed Mr. Bush jumping ahead of Mr. Kerry with a clear lead of between six and 11 percentage points. There's no such 'convention bounce' for the president in the latest poll by Harris.

The Harris poll, conducted by telephone Sept. 9-13, shows Sen. Kerry leading Mr. Bush 48% to 47% among likely voters nationwide. The poll also found that a slender 51% to 45% majority doesn't believe that Mr. Bush deserves to be re-elected.

The previous poll in which likely U.S. voters were asked which candidate they preferred showed Messrs. Kerry and Bush tied 47% to 47%. That survey was conducted before the Republican National Convention in New York City, which ended earlier this month. An earlier poll in June indicated a Bush lead over Mr. Kerry of 10 percentage points, at 51% to 41%.

The latest poll was conducted within the U. S. among a nationwide cross section of 1,018 adults. It has a margin of error of +/-3 percentage points.

The results echo a recent poll sponsored by Investor's Business Daily, which also showed that the gap between the U.S. presidential candidates has disappeared. The poll of likely voters showed the two candidates tied at 47% in a two-man race and tied at 46% if independent candidate Ralph Nader is included.

7. All The Naysayers Should Back Off And Shut Up - Kerry Understands

And is hitting Bush very hard!

[Norquist Nemesis]

12. Surprisingly, I heard soundbytes all day today

of him. "Excuse president." Never his fault, never his fault, never, never, never, ever.

They only cover when he goes on the attack. I hope he keeps it up!

13. Oh, that's good to hear. That *is* a good soundbite, p.s.

15. it was very good, saw it this morning on CSPAN

I liked the emphasis on the ballooning health care costs eroding job creation and after four years the Bush administration has done NOTHING.
