So why can't Kerry seem to get ahead of him? Here's our speculation...

Here's Wolfstar's "speculation:" Polls are BS.

LOL! I tend to agree.

Especially after reading that 80% don't want Rumsfield to resign. Now wouldn't that 80% somehow translate into support for the Bush administration.

Polls are so easily manipulated, you can just about get them to conclude whatever you want them to.

Bush isn't losing because Kerry is the democrats version of Bob Dole.

;Here's Wolfstar's "speculation:" Polls are BS.

No kidding. I mean consider the typical national poll of 900 adults or registered or likely voters. With 50 states thats an average 18 people per state.

Now someone could argue statistics to me all day, I've even taken courses on the subject. But you'll never convince me that you can ask 18 people per state and get a national view.

Or as Dad says, "You can't just ask 12 people at the local bar and find out who's gonna win the election".
