Ahhh, release the phony Time poll first
then come in with the phony CNN poll to make it look accurate afterwards.

CNN Gallup and Time. Not a one of them has been in line with the rest of the available data. Not one.

3. If it is the Time poll
there are questions about it. Best to wait for polls a few days out to get an accurate picture.

Edited on Fri Sep-03-04 04:22 PM by Walt Starr

11. Well if Time has a 10 point gap, then Gallup has
60% Bush

Of course they polled Republicans only so this is good news.
