Rasmussen, 7/24, Kerry 47-Bush 45, Kerry slips 1

Kerry's lead of 3 gained so suddenly 2 days ago slips a bit. It was presumed that he got it because a strong Bush day scrolled off the 18th. But now it appears likely it was a pair of strong days for him. One will scroll off tomorrow.


TOPICS: Politics/Elections
KEYWORDS: polls
And yeah, we're obsessing over these 1 point moves that are within the region of statistical noise.

Bush consistent at over 50%. Interesting that there is a big gap between GOP and Dems in the generic congressional poll.

I find a 38% GOP standing in that poll hard to swallow.

I've been telling pollsters who call me that I am going to vote for Kerry;-) We have to keep the Dems complacent until it is too late.

Are you serious that you've been polled? I've never been polled and none of my friends have ever been polled which leads me to the conclusion that polls are *not mentionable*

I've been polled before several times, but not since 1996.

Yes, we have been polled several times. We were also a Nielsen family with the daily log and everything.

In general the right answer is Nader, not Kerry. And I think I'm seeing some of this with those polls where Nader is extracted and it seems to help Bush more.

The way to handle this is ask if the pollster is for the Bush Campaign. If so give them accurate data to work with. If not, Nader is the right answer. A poll bump for Nader will drag Kerry to the left in fear.

I have never been polled by phone. I signed up to do the on=line Zogby poll and I tell him what he wants to hear. I am a very honest person but when it comes to a poll run by that evil man, I can't help myself.

So far there is very little "buzz" regarding the DNC convention this coming week. Even here at the epicenter (I live near Boston), there is a ho-hum approach to the whole thing. Most of us around here are more concerned with how we are going to get to work next week.
