Geez. You will go blind watching the damn polls.

Assume they are being manipulated.
Assume bush will attempt to steal the election.
Assume we will be screwed.

Now, get off your ass, get on your donkey, and go register voters!

2. Yep. The polls are likely an RNC talking point. Best ignored.
I posted something from Bartcop. It promptly slid out of sight. But it's all about steering away from the RNC agenda, whether it's polls, or typesets, or swift boat liars. Where's the beef. And especially with only fifty days left. There's no time for goofy bullshit. Let Rove spin. We'll make hay. I say Kerry should pull a few wild punches in the "debate". And start swinging on every issue. Then roll it all up in a ball, and toss the mess into Bush's lap.

Sorry, it's late. I probaby sound like a vacuum cleaner salesman. No, that would be Tom Ridge. :)

3. A Good Poll for Kerry
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.
