1. It's almost time for AP or Gallup to release their Disinformation Poll
Give it some time and a couple more days of polls showing Kerry leading.

The Busheviks MUST plant their backstory or this years's election theft might not go as smoothly as 2000 and 2002.

5. They did this morning.
CNN/USA Today/Gallup has Bush 48 Kerry 47, even though Bush is doing a shitty job as President.

8. That poll had a 5.0 MOE
Not the best poll. Kerry was up by six among registered voters.

9. In the latest Gallup poll...
Edited on Fri May-14-04 03:16 PM by GainesT1958
Kerry leads Dub by 50-44. Significant findings in two sets of numbers there:

Dub's overall job approval rating is down to 46%, the lowest it's been in Gallup's polling since before 9/11/2001. Also, Kerry has hit 50% for, I believe, the first time in their poll.

A former professor of mine in East Carolina's MPA Program (and a political science prof, at that) studied incumbent presidents v. challengers for every election since 1932. What he found, among other things, was that, save for 1948 and Harry Truman, EVERY incumbent president who had consistent job approval ratings of less than 50% in May of the election year ended up LOSING the general election that November. Well, here it is May, and virtually EVERY major poll has Dub below 50% in job approval, not to mention below 50 (in many cases belwo 45%) in re-elect numbers. Me thinks Dub is no Harry Truman, nor John Kerry Kerry a Thomas Dewey. Hence, I've got this ever-reinforced feeling that Dub's GOIN' DOWN in November!:D

NOTE: Polls using "likely voters" aren't accurate before Labor Day of an election year. Those using "Registered Voters" are more accurate at this stage.

:kick:

6. I'm really starting to feel it
No way am I getting complacent, but it's starting to feel real. And maybe, maybe, maybe he'll tank so badly he'll take bugman and a bunch of other vermin with him.

7. Six months. My fingers will cramp if I cross them that long.
Bumpy road ahead. Beware of falling rocks.
