WASHINGTON - With just over four months until election day, a near-majority of Americans believe the nation is headed in the wrong direction and that President Bush deliberately misled the public to make the case for war in Iraq, the latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll finds. Yet even with those less-than-positive numbers for the president, the survey also shows that the race between Bush and presumptive Democratic nominee John Kerry is a statistical tie.
According to the poll, which was conducted by Hart/Teeter, Bush gets the support of 45 percent of registered voters, Kerry gets 44 percent, and independent candidate Ralph Nader gets 4 percent.

It's the electrol college that matters most.
A good demonstration of just how poor a candidate kerry is
I don't see how this qualifies as "down". He hasn't lost ground, and he's ahead of Kerry.
And the poll on November 2nd!
They are getting more transparent. When they can't fudge the head to head numbers enough with oversampled D's, then lead with anything bad for Bush they can dig up, no matter how minute.
I am not familiar with the "Hart/Teeter" Poll, but it seems in line with almost all of the other "Registered" voter polls. W with a slight lead. Was he up further than this in the last "Hart/Teeter" poll?

Given the fact that Bush leads 45/44, where do they get the title "Bush Down But Not Out"??????
Tom Brokejaw slurs his words so often these days I think the fella himself is hammered!
Slogan of the summer for all stories related to NBC:
"DON'T BELIEVE THE LIBERAL MEDIA!"
Especially since Teeter died nearly a month ago....
So when taking the average of this poll, the CNN poll, the CBS poll and the Fox News poll, I have Bush ahead by 3 ish...and thats without Nader.....
they are dreaming if they think Kerry will be able to overtake Bush in the summer, he might be in the lead for a week or so after his convention, but Bush will blow him out of the water...
"................a near-majority of Americans believe the nation is headed in the wrong direction and that President Bush deliberately misled the public to make the case for war in Iraq....."
The above claim is really, I mean, REALLY pi$$ing me off!!!! Our Republican leaders need to stick this in and break it off...NOW, not later, but RIGHT NOW!!
Bush is in the lead and he's "down but not out"!?
Kerry's the one on life support lately, not Bush. Idiots.
Down? If kerry doesn't gain 10 points with the convention his campaign will look like rats leaving a sinking ship.
By the way there is a poll to freep there too.
Not to mention, this statement is blatantly partisan.
They are definently spinning these polls.
"Registered" voters and "Likely" voters are too different animals.
Alot of the Old Mainstream Press polls are reporting registered voters results.. they show a deadheat..
They aren't telling you what their "Likely" voters polls are saying. Likely voters polls are more accurate, and they tend to add 3-4% to the GOP candidate.
So if NBC registered voters poll has Bush by 1.. It's much more likely to be Bush by 4 or 5 among likely voters.
Priceless.
