***....Sixteen days before Election Day, the president needs to scrape together at least 48 of the remaining 99 votes from tossup states to win re-election. Kerry needs 53 to stop him.
The AP analyzed poll data, both public and private, and interviewed analysts in key states in the days since the final debate Wednesday. While public and private polls suggested Bush may be gaining ground on Kerry, the consensus was that the race was remarkably close going into the last two full weeks of campaigning.
A surge by either candidate 3 or 4 percentage points in national polls could shift the eight states and the 99 electoral votes to one candidate, putting him on course for a 300-plus electoral romp. ....***
This poll came out at noon today - CNNUSATODAYGALLUP: BUSH OVER KERRY BY 8

I wonder if Mr. Fournier still believes what he said yesterday about a surge propelling a candidate to an electoral romp or is he too busy writing about all the newpaper endorsements Kerry has gotten today.
dont let the polls fool you .. the manupicated them for a kerry come back during the debates.....
wounldnt they do that to get us all to stay home thinking it was ok . he has it in the bag ......
the pollster....... and MSM are the same bolt of cloth your all......
OUT MISSION IS TO GET EVERY CONSERVATIVE WHO CAN VOTE TO THE BALLOT BOX..... AGREED ???
I'll go with "b". Damage control, damage control, damage control. ;o)
Yes EVERYONE needs to get to the polls.
An overwelming vote for Bush will help cram the popular vote vs the electoral vote down their lying throats.
Bush coattails will give us Supreme Court Justices.
When it comes to election day, remember that electoral votes are what counts. All this business about popular votes and registered voters means nothing come election day. I believe we'll all see what we believe right now.
I guess the MSM is going to sit on this as long as they can.

exactly......... pound there ass into the ground..
Everyone needs to go to the polls and get 20 of their friends to the polls to "pull the lever" for Bush. If they are hopeless lefties, then convince them to vote for Nader.
President and Mrs. Bush are campaigning in New Jersey tomorrow. (12 electoral votes)
I don't want Bush elected by the electoral college alone, I want our president reelected by the largest numbers to ever vote in an election period.
I very strong Bush supporter I'd say.
Get ready for the Dims to make the 2000 robbery attempt look like a love-in.
THAT IS OUR JOB......
OVERWHELMING FORCE...... IT IS CALLED SHOCK AND AWE......
LETS SHOW OUR BOYS WHAT WE CAN DO.... AND LIGHT UP THE SKY FOR THEM FROM HERE......
SHOCK AND AWE....... YALLL
bttt
A romp will save us from that. And if that doesn't get people to the polls, nothing will.
