"Bush leads": Letterman, david - bias?
I thought the latest polls give kerry a 4.5 lead, discarding Fox poll.

Is letterman biased to repubs?

He said the latest pollS give bush a lead.

Not poll, but poll S, plural.

1. I'm just guessing that Letterman isn't a heavy researcher.
I've seen no indication in the past that he likes Bush. In fact, I've seen indications of quite the opposite.

If this was a joke in his monologue, it's likely he didn't even write it.

3. Dave is liberal I think
but it seems most of the news media is almost willing Bush to a lead. They can't stand this steady, consistent kerry lead so they just fabricate "kerry fading" "swiftboat vets sinking kerry" stories.

4. PS a 5.5 lead if add..
in 3/4 of the undecideds, as many do. they go for challengers, historically.

I havent checked polls for two days, so perhaps one or two more are in now. But nothing about them shown up here, so i assume that there are no big surprises to upset the 4.5 average i mentioned.
{yes , i throw out Fox.}

7. PS "stuupit Ruupert"
if you say it just right , it almost rhymes. Could become a new catchphrase for rupert murdoch.

PS why is bart simpson on Fox? He could easily go anywhere.

5. I wouldn't blame him if he was...
George W. Bush has been every comedian's dream come true. However I don't think he is.

6. no way, letterman does not like bush, he makes fun democrats also, but
that's because he is a comedian and it's his job. but he is mostly a liberal.
