4. I hate to burst your bubble but, Gallup isn't wrong very often
No they didn't have Bush leading by 13 a week before the election.
They actually were right within the margin of error, Gallup was statistically right.

Candidates Final Gallup Survey Election Result Gallup Deviation
Bush 48.0 47.9 +0.1
Gore 46.0 48.4 -2.4
Nader 4.0 2.7 +1.3

Check it out for yourself here: http://www.gallup.com/poll/content/?ci=1258

Bottom line is that Bush is ahead right now. Kerry can make it up, but he has a lot of work to do.
