Zogby: The Race Is Still Kerry’s To Lose (Barf alert)
Zoby On Line ^ | 9-30-2004 | John Zogby

And in 1980, when Americans seemed to have made up their minds about not voting for President Jimmy Carter, they needed to be assured that his opponent, Republican Ronald Reagan was more than a dangerous ideologue or a Grade B actor. Reagan delivered one of the great knockout blows in presidential debate history: “Are you better off than you were fours ago?”

His analysis seems pretty counter-intuitive...I mean...where are the red states that are in trouble for President Bush?? There aren't any I can think of...

Well put and good observation.

As far as I can tell, his phone polls aren't being sponsored by any major media outlet this time out.

And for the life of me I can't understand why the WSJ is paying for his interactive BS polls.

Kerry gets 47% of the vote for showing up. After people see and hear him, he leaves with 43%

Zogby's reputation is based on being right on Election Day. But six weeks out from Election Day, he can say whatever he wants, and people will forget the next day.

I think Zogby has an agenda.

And he's doing a very good job of it.

Bush can get 55% just by showing up.

I find it tiresome to see even Freepers repeat that Zogby is an accurate pollster. He was accurate for the 1996 and 2000 popular vote totals, but has been a disaster in so many other ways. He was the single worst pollster in 2002, and his primary polling this year was so bad that media outlets stopped using him.

Did Zogby consult Senator Mondale before writing this article?

You sure don't hear his polls repeated much in the media anymore.

Credibility will not exist on the left, after November 2nd. They are spending it as fast as they can.

When you have 100% of the vote, you have no "room for growth." When you have 0% of the vote, you have nothing but "room for growth." Having "room for growth" in an election isn't a good thing.

45-47% is about right, but that's the max kerry will get, maybe even less. Nader will draw about 2%, leaving poor ol' George with 51-53%, along with about 310 electoral votes.

Doesn't the guy trailing always inevitably have "more room for growth"?

Wasn't he the only major pollster to sample the voters right after the Bush DUI story broke on the Sunday before the last election? He's in the tank for Kerry, but his bias and wishful thinking poll samples aren't going to pull Pumpkinhead Kerry out of the tailspin he's in.
