IBD/CSM has Kerry ahead!
Last polling they had him behind by 3. So that's a 4 point jump!

13. Yeah, they want the public to be confused, it benefits the Repubs.

2. Yes, and keep this kicked
It's disgusting that a poll that shows bad numbers gets 50 instant replies, but one that shows Kerry surging gets a meek 2 or 3 responses.

Why is it that liberals are such sky-is-falling hand wringers? Is it genetic?

3. Posted this earlier today...

but keep it kicked, for the reasons cited above. So many people just want to piss and moan.

Why don't liberals grow a pair? Damned if I know. They just want to cry into their hankies all day instead of fight, it seems to me.

7. It is bizarre.
Many have been predicting that the tide would start turning back toward Kerry, but when it actually happens, mums the word!
:argh: What the blankety blank is the matter with Democrats???

5. Great news!
It just goes to show that we can't panic when a poll, even a legit poll, shows us behind. :toast:

6. When listening to C-SPAN this morning
on the Washington Journal portion, a Kerry supporter called in to say that he has been answering all polling questions with the same answer. He said that he fully intends to vote for Kerry but he tells them that he will be voting for Bush. He didn't say exactly why he was doing that, but I came away with the impression that he WANTED to skew the numbers to give Bush a November surprise. I would assume that he is not the only one doing that either.

Wouldn't that be loverly?

So, thanks for the great news. It makes my day when someone actually reports the truth in a poll.

9. That's weird. Sure wish they'd call me instead.
I'd give them more info than they ever wanted to hear! And, it wouldn't be pro-*. }(

14. ive wondered for some time if at home, some people say
theyre voting bush but in reality may be unsure or possibly voting kerry. i hate to think about the reasons why someone may say on the phone (when polled) that they would vote bush when they actually may not...

the various pressures on the sheeple come from within their home and communities and places of work. but ive wondered if when the time comes, they have their own idea of what is right!

33. Will it have that effect or will it make it easier to steal the election?

24. No, no I don't thank you very much.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to torture myself by watching old Bush* speeches that I have on tape and then Wolf Blitzer. My psychologist says I'm making progress, since I've taken thie Nixon mask down off my bedroom door.

21. I wasn't sure where to go to find out
I remember a link to a site posted here that showed all the poll results from 2000, but I can't the name of the site.

18. IBD didn't start polling until after 2000 IIRC
So they have no track record.

16. Yes I like good news!
But bad news always leads to longer threads about WHY, and WHO, and WHAT WE SHOULD DO NEXT.

30. This is great news
The librul media will surely report this. Nah, they'll probably rely on the much more reliable Gallup (-ing to the right) poll.
