What great comebacks to Zogby's 'observations'. . .I hope he reads the thread; and figures it out.

Right now, in our Country; at this political nexus. . .there is a 'Right side' and a wrong side'. Choose one.

What the hell? accurate? Zogby? Huh?

No one has come close to Zogby in a presidential race, since Zogby began doing them. In 2000, Zogby's numbers turned out to be closer than anyone elses.

Zogby has it backwards. It's the Democrats that have divided and polarized this country.

At a time when we are at war, the democrats have done their best to 'tear down the President' and give 'aid and comfort' to the enemy. Could you even imagine repeated attacks against the President during WW II.

The liberals and democrats have DIVIDED and POLARIZED this country. They have driven a huge WEDGE between supporters of the war effort and those who oppose our efforts to win the war on terror.

No surprise here at all actually--as John Kerry did EXACTLY the same thing once before,,,,,,,,the last time he "REPORTED FOR DUTY"---(in Vietnam).

But he hasnt been close this election cycle. Although I think this trend is reversing itself, notice the last couple of polls from him showing the President ahead, he has consistently been off towards the Democrats on every poll in contrast to other pollsters....

Aren't you calling him on his accuracy a bit soon? We'll know if that statement is true or not in a couple of weeks now. At this point, I don't claim to know if Zogby will continue his record for another election or not. However, I'm certain at this point, that know one knows for sure.

he is so so so so biased..if bush is up in his polls then add+5..This says it all folks
"Of Arab descent, Mr Zogby is especially interested in Middle East issues, and is currently undertaking a series of polls in Iraq about issues such as the viability of establishing a genuinely democratic state there."

I'm glad you missed the second half of what I wrote...

up to this point, he hasnt been close to other pollster, in fact, he has been a consistent outlier. That trend is now seeming to reverse itself. What did you expect? He makes up these numbers on his own anyway......

What he is saying is that there will be MASSIVE dem vote fraud.


Its just that he doesn't understand that the consequences of that fraud will bring about a civil war of sorts.

"It has gone, in his view, because President Bush deliberately chose to ignore the 'creative centre' that traditionally energised American politics."

It's insight into his thinking and it's a effective spiel for Jf'nK. The "creative center", that's sick.

ZOGBY could not be more wrong.All this Started with the Clintons.With Clinton it was democrats/socialist/communist or nothing.The way he treated the republicans before and after his IMPEACHMENT was a disgrace for any country.

He started his career with the New York Times (when it was run by Abe Rosenthal), and then went on to freelance for Forbes and write books. He started a newspaper called "The Earth Times" and even asked me to write a few columns for this publication (from a conservative point of view).

Thanks!

I'm actually kind of hoping that someone will come along and prove me wrong. It's a bummer to think that the present "meanness" is unprecedented and might be incurable.

I'm older than dirt, and I've never seen this country divided like it is today.
We've always had a division between liberals and Conservatives, but it's turned into a chasm with hatred on both sides.

This rift will not be healed, nor should it be.
"Healing" in the liberals lexicon means succumbing to their wishes for socialization of this country, and we've done that far too long.

before that, when GHWB promised "a kinder, gentler America," and the "era of the open hand," and George Mitchell ripped his hand off at the shoulder-- the Clarence Thomas hearings as a prime exhibit.
