8/30 Looking at the latest http://pollingreport.com numbers, our boy's back!
\_ huh? how are those polling numbers any different than we've seen
for the last couple months? What are you talking about?
\_ Wow. A tie! You mean it hasn't been tied before? Horrors!
\_ The polling looked a lot bleaker for bush even around the
beginning of the month.
\_ Anyone who thinks this election isn't going to come down to
the wire is smoking some serious drugs. [restored]
\_ Anyone who thinks it's better to go into the debates 5
points down rather than even is also smoking some serious
drugs.
\_ who's 5 points down? Are we talking about the same
polls? some polls have bush ahead by margin that's
in the noise, and some have kerry ahead by a margin
that's in the noise. just what the fuck are you
talking about?
\_ He's on crack or he's only been reading the
questionable polls like Zogby or Rasmussen.
Good polls like Fox or Gallup have consistently shown
a dead heat for quite awhile.
\_ Time with leaners 8/5 has Bush down for 7. Even
Fox 8/4 has Bush down for 5. NPR 8/24, Bush -5.
Democracy Corps 8/5, Bush -7. Zogby 8/14, Bush
-7.
\_ Are those likely or registered numbers? A lot
of people get confused and compare the two
sets.
