This is the most fluid presidential election that I can remember!

Bingo! It's amazing how quickly people forget history. The so called political experts had Al Gore pegged as the next President in the 2000 election based on exit polls. Those so called experts also had Thomas Dewey anointed as the winner of the 1948 election by declaring it in the paper the next day. Problem was the political pundits forgot to tell all the Truman voters!

It sure is amazing. It’s as if “today’s” polls are set in stone for some people, UNTIL the next poll, lol.

And besides the great examples you gave in your post #12, here’s another one EXACTLY four years ago TODAY!

December 11, 2003

“In a head-to-head match-up between Dean and Congressman Richard Gephardt, 43% of Democrats would now prefer Dean as their nominee while just 32% would prefer Gephardt. Before Gore’s announcement, Dean was preferred by just 36% to Gephardt’s 31%.”

And it was John Kerry who ended up being the Dem nominee!!
