This is the release from Gallup that breaks down the data more clearly, and I think it provides better analysis.

Here's a reason I don't believe in these polls. They never report the number of people who hang up the phone. This is NOT the same as the number of no opinions / non-responders. Now, there is no way to know if the person that hangs up on the pollster will or will not vote, or how they will vote if they are voters. These hang-ups have to be a rather large number. I always hang up as soon as I learn it is a poll and I suspect conservative voters tend to hang up a LOT more than liberals. Liberals will tend to respond to the pollster because they want Bush out and want to push that poll number up. Conservatives have better things to do than answer questions and tend to not watch polls.
