Despite the negativity regarding these polls by the MSM these internal numbers show a different story. Bush increases his lead on Kerry in every aspect. Take a look!

What is the job approval?
Gotta love the MSM... classic...
"Poll: Bush Lead Shrinking"
Despite the fact that the difference between 11 and 8 isn't as dramatic as that headline suggests and the fact that his lead among RVs increased...
Bush Certain Voters - 47%
Bush voters may change mind - 5%
Kerry Certain Voters - 37%
Kerry voters may change mind - 7%
This is unbelievably bad for Kerry.
JA at 54%
poll ping
That seems really low.
4. Do you approve or disapprove of the way George W. Bush is handling his job as president?
| Approve | Disapprove | No opinion | |
| 2004 Sep 24-26 | 54 | 44 | 2 |
| 2004 Sep 13-15 | 52 | 45 | 3 |
| 2004 Sep 3-5 | 52 | 46 | 2 |
Excellent movement in almost all categories. Very promising to see the breakdown as it is. With 47% certain they will vote for Bush, Kerry has to sway 5% who are not solidly with Bush. If Bush can sway 1 or 2% of the non-solid Kerry voters, he'll coast to victory.
54%
And despite the fact that the "decline" for Bush most likely was due to a change in how the GOP/Dem split of the sample worked out.
Yes the internals do look pretty good. My only worry is these darn oil prices. I am suspicious that there is more than the market at play here.
A couple of weeks ago it was l3. But I think these numbers are good.
54
