How much do you add to an LAT poll to get the real numbers--8 or 9 percent?

It must have killed Ron Brownstein to write these words.

Well they had Arnie at 25 before the election when the final vote total showed him coming in at 48%. I would say about ....... that much Kentucky windage. Note they say Kerry has been leading in their poll all year. But that was all before the little swiftie duck took to the field and decided to take on the SS Kerry.

They spend $65 million and get blown up by $300k. Sounds about right.

Fire III.

Nah, they're simply not as far off as they usually are... LA Times would rather argue its a "dirty campaign" bounce than a convention bounce.

The decoder key to LA Times polls are their partisan sampling... This one shows a decent comparison of Republicans to Demonrats.

Yea, and you have to love the Times, using terms like "edge" to describe the Bush lead and "nick" to describe the Kerry collapse.

They sure didn't print this article with any "bias". LOL!

Just what I was thinking. LATimes skews the numbers, so we can add another ten or twelve points Kerry's being buried under. Calling Hillary!!!! Help!!!
