Check the ABCNews website "The Note" on politics, I fully expect it to show Kerry + 10 or more and it will become "the poll" that EVERYONE regardless of their affiliation to networks to quote as the bible on the bounce.
Expect Dem talking points of all talk shows tonight to lead their comments referring to this poll only.

We'll know later today, but I have checked "The Note" and I am not at all sure that that's what they are saying here. In any event, Gallup is still the best national polling firm in the business. As I remember it, they don't cook (i.e. weight) their samples by party affiliation and they do the best job of actually identifying likely voters among those who say they intend to vote. Keep an eye on Gallup and the poll that AP uses, and pay attention to the rest (mostly cooked polls for media clients) only to detect trends in the numbers.
