Not that I actually read the article....but alot of polls do not take into account states electoral votes.  


This election is not going to be decided by the voters but wich states have the bets lawyers standing by.


Dred thanks for bringing that up.  Them two idiot democrat senators intorduced that bill not because they want to institute a draft but to draw attention to the Iraq war.

There's several emails going around that the administration is the ones pushing for it.

again this is one point that Bush could have came out on the offensive about during the debate but all he did was mention a 2 second mutter saying we'll continue to have an all voluteer army and left it at that.

Turns out I got mixed up... I thought the 3rd debate was going to be a town hall free for all. But the 2 sides juggled it - the third debate is now on the economy, the 2nd is the town hall.

You mean thats only one point he could have attacked on.
there are a bunch of others.

Kerry won the debate. but I think bush did more to loose it then Kerry did ot win it.
Kery was certainly vulnerable on a number of issues. Bush just didnt exploit them

All Kerry HAD to do to win the debate was show up. There's a reason he was a champion debater in college while Bush was a cheerleader.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.

Face the facts..... every Prez we've had that was Democratic....screwed watermelon up to the point a Republican Prez had to clean up the mess,,,,

Look you Liberal asssholes when was the last time a Democratic Prez served more than 4 years in the White House... and now tell me the last times a Republican Prez served more than 4 years.....?

Get over it you Kerry Mongers... there is no free ride anymore!

*insert middle finger here*

BTW look at all the DemoCraps records in the Senate and the Congress.... Then talk to me.

Lets get a Fox poll next! Wanna bet Bush leads that one 49-43? ;)

According to your link the Newsweek poll was rating Bush as the winner for the other two they've done since August.
50-45 - 5 point Bush lead on 9/10
54-43 - 11 point Bush lead on 9/3
The 9/3 poll gives Bush the highest lead of all the polls taken 5-days either side.

All in all they don't look too skewed towards Kerry.

But as many have pointed out Polls aren't very accurate.

yep... it looks like kerrie will take new york and California.   A polll amoung likely voters on the newsweak staff showed a landslide popular victory with all zero newsweak electorial votes going to kerrie.

I think it has more to do with honesty than accuracy.

As per my last post on this subject the one I saw had bush at 310 Forget what Kerrys #s was but those results were supposed to be as recent as last night.
Of course as with any other polls the results will vary from poll to poll
so your results arent really all that surprising.
I will however predict that NJ will end up going to Bush primarily because of the  fiasco's  our blockhead govenor has been involved with.
As of yesterday I heard it was a dead heat here between Bush and Kerry. But our Givenor (not a typo) has left a bad taste in alot of folks mouths around here (pun intended)

dred... even the poll I stated could be interpreted as over 300 for Bush... they are very conservative with the swing states and don't really give the tossup ones to anyone.   Bush's support in the "weak Bush" states is better than the kerrie support in the "weak kerrie" states.    

NJ is shocking but what is even more shocking is that it is not a democrat landslide in California.... the state will still go commie but by less of a margin than anyone had expected.   even the hippies in oregon and washington are not turning out for kerrie..

if it wasn't for canada and finland kerrie would lose the election.

Statisitic are "polls" and meaningless when showing a Kerry lead, and "reports" when showing a Bush lead. Kerry has "flip-flops" and Bush has "changes in tactics."

Sheep logic - its whats for breakfast.
Fear mongering - its whats for lunch.

I think I'll skip dinner.
