3. It doesnt' matter
The BOUNCE was reported again today on NBC. I rarely watch TV "news", except at the gym. Today they put up a new Newsweek poll that they claim shows the 11 point bounce remains????!!!!
I thought the 11-point bounce had been debunked.
Anyway, it's all perception and the media drives the perception and they want to drive the point that Kerry is losing and if the campaign doesn't get its act together and get TOUGH and NASTY and kick some butt, I am afraid the perception will drive reality.

No WAY Kerry shouldn't have about a 20 point lead against this moron. It's absolutely mind boggling. He is a great candidate and clearly qualified but the media, the campaign and the SHEEPLE are all together working against him.

Now I read in the Wash. Post that Kerry has to win TWO of OH, PA and FL. I thought PA was enough and even that (where I live) is way too close for comfort. I'm not sure who is doing this analysis but I'm almost to the point of quitting reading ALL media.

4. will people ignore these "polls" and go vote anyway?
I know I don't base my whole reason on voting by a poll...hopefully these polls will get Kerry supporters to say a big F You to the media and to the Bush administration...ignore these bogus reports..its just not the case...they are totally biased..and we all know it has been...

6. MSNBC - White House Correspondent this a.m. posted and said
Now MSNBC is associated with Newsweek not Time, but he first put up the Time Poll, then followed it with the Newsweek poll that has it down to 5-6 points and then announced: Looks like Bush's post-convention bounce is holding!!!!------ummmmmm, go back and look at YOUR Newsweek poll, idiot. It shows he's coming down. Then he talks about Bush going to Michigan today where he says (with almost tears in his eyes) that he has to unfortunately tell us something: Bush is slightly down there (how much is slightly down??---is Kerry down 5-6 to Bush in Newsweek poll 'slightly down' or so massive that he can never, never, never catch up??)! I desperately want to see these type of headlines change in the next 3 weeks to: Bush now neck and neck with Kerry; or Bush has lost post-convention lead, etc to stop this goddamn propaganda they are trying to spread and discourage voters.

7. You're right, they are trying to suppress Dem voter turnout
And they are not capturing newly registered voters or all the young people that have no LAN line and only use cell phones.

9. I've said it before
And I'll say it again. There should be no polls allowed for the thirty days preceding the election, ala Greece.

11. Reporter said today it's more of a dribble ...
So I'll rephrase the question, "Is the Bush dribble for real"?
