5. You'e talking about the ICR Excel poll, Aug. 25-29, 2004?

If so, I mean no offense, but how can you interpret a lead of 48 to 45 % in a poll of 701 "likely voters" as "running away with it"? I want to believe this as badly as you do, but these numbers do not give me any reason to relax.

Didn't get your joke. There certainly are a lot of poll watchers with a "day trader" mentality here!
